This achievement is missable if you completely ignore the Kissers of Wounds in Albero.
Shroud of Dreamt Sins: To start, you must deliver the Bouquet of thyme to the Kissers of Wounds before you kill Ten Piedad. You’ll find it to the left of the teleporter in Albero, which can only be accessed (at this point) from the teleporter in Mercy Dreams; you’ll find it in the bottom-right of the area. You will receive the Linen Cloth. Head to the fountain to the left of the Kissers and interact with it to be teleported to a place that includes a character who you can give the Cloth to. Do so to obtain the Shroud of Dreamt Sins.
Blood Perpetuated in Sand: Head to the middle-left of Mercy Dreams to run into a merchant. You’ll notice that one of the items she has for sale is a key. Snatch it, and head to the Brotherhood of the Silent Sorrow. Upon entering the area, you’ll see a door, use the key to unlock it. The relic is inside.
Silvered Lung of Dolphos: Upon entering Grievance Ascends from Jondo, head down, then right through the corridor (a teleporter is to the left). Head down until you see another corridor, go through it. Afterwards, head up, and to the right. Complete the platforming section to earn the relic.
Nail Uprooted from Dirt: When entering Jondo, you’ll find a pilgrim unable to move on due to the moving platforms being inactive. Head through the whole area until you’re on the other side, at which point activate a switch to the right and talk to him again. He will move to the Brotherhood of the Silent Sorrow. Enter the area via the Mountains of the Endless Dusk and move up; you’ll find him again. Complete the platforming section that can be entered in the door next to him and break the fake wall when on the other side, then talk to him. He will then move to the Wasteland of the Buried Churches; the right-hand side to be precise. You’ll need to bring down 2 platforms in the room. Talk to him afterwards, and he’ll move to the very right of the Patio of the Silent Steps. Simply kill the enemy that’s in the room and talk to him. He’ll move one more time to the Mother of Mothers. Equip the three beads he gave you and a door will open that has the relic inside. In addition, upon leaving the room, you’ll also earn

- Melted Golden Coins (requires Blood Perpetuated in Sand relic); found in the middle-right of Grievance Ascends
Put the items in the slots to hatch the egg, awakening Altasgracias. She/they will give you the Egg of Deformity.

Missable
Relics are items that let you interact with certain objects in the world. None of them are necessary to complete the game but they are necessary to get a lot of items/collectables. You can have up to three relics equipped at the same time, though you can switch them around any time in your inventory. Some of the relics are obtained by completing certain side quests, which in turn are missable. So should you miss out on the side quests, you miss out on a relic, which in turn will not let you get some of the trophies, much less this one.

- Shroud of Dreamt Sins - Missable: This relic is tied to the 'Kissers of Wounds' side quest (see Mediterranean Diet for more information). This will be the first reward you get from Tirso so after giving him any of the herbs and defeating a boss afterwards. However, you will not get the relic itself from Tirso but rather a Linen Cloth. Take this to the Blessed Lord of the Salt Shore in the fountain in Albero. He will bless the cloth and you will get the relic.
- Blood Perpetuated in Sand: Brotherhood of the Silent Sorrow. This relic is in the room of the Elder brother, which is locked. You can buy the key from Calendaria in shop in Mercy Dreams.
- Silvered Lung of Dolphos: Can be found in Grievance Ascends. It is in the top right corner of the map of the area. You have to climb a type of tower to get it.
- Three Gnarled Tongues: Tied to Altasgracias' quest. See Warm and Soft for more information.
- Linen of Golden Thread: Tied to Jocinero's quest. Find 20 of the Children of Moonlight (see The Bull and the Moon for more information), then talk to him in The Sleeping Canvases.
- Nail Uprooted from Dirt: Tied to Redento's quest. See Ultreia Et Suseiafor more information.
- Incorrupt Hand of the Fraternal Master: Find the Severed Hand in the Desecrated Cistern (need the Nail Uprooted from Dirt relic to be able to get it), then bring this item to the Blessed Lord of the Salty Shore in Albero's fountain.
