To start, you will need to beat the Fire Giant boss, who is in the northeastern section of the Lands Between map in the Mountaintops of the Giants section. After defeating this boss, the game will open up to a Site of Grace called the Tempest-Facing Balcony. After making it to this Site of Grace, you will find the Somberstone Miner’s Bell Bearing [4] near the Site of Grace.
After you have found the Somberstone Miner’s Bell Bearing [4], head back to the Roundtable Hold and speak with the Twin Maiden Husks. Select the “Offer a bell bearing” option to give the Twin Maiden Husks the Somberstone Miner’s Bell Bearing [4]. This will allow you to purchase as many Somber Smithing Stones 7 and 8 as you want.
Here is where all five Somberstone Miner’s Bell Bearing locations are.
