There are many barriers, physical or magical, in the Shadow of the ErdTree DLC. One of them is a seal located on the southern coast and gives access to the coffin fissure. This seal will only be lifted on one condition: that you continue your adventure in the Shadow Realm of Elden Ring.

“A powerful enchantment has been lifted”: Understanding what this Shadow of the ErdTree notification means
Like Elden Ring, its Shadow of the ErdTree DLC is a true ode to exploration. The FromSoftware studio invites us, in different ways, to visit all the areas of the new region that is the Kingdom of Shadows. This exploration makes it possible to recover splinters making us stronger; allows you to be amazed by landscapes as sumptuous as they are varied: and also allows you to discover the stories (too lightly in my opinion) of the seven major characters of this extension.
Our adventure is sometimes oriented in one direction or another depending on the barriers we encounter. These can be level barriers: a boss that is too hard suggests that we continue our journey in search of a method to defeat it. It can also be a physical barrier: a locked door, a bridge that is not lowered… or even an access that has been magically sealed. This is what could have happened to players who explored the South side from the realm of shadows from the first hours of play and fell around the coffin crack.
Like all other barriers, this seal commits you to continue your journey elsewhere! Indeed, you must advance in your exploration of the realm of shadows to open this access. It is by approaching the Black Castleafter beating Rellana the knight of the twin moonsthat a notification will alert you that a major rune has broken and a powerful enchantment has been lifted.
Somewhere, a major rune has broken…
As well as a powerful enchantment.
Only then will the seal be lifted. The chasm you have entered now allows you to access the coffin crack. The latter is a separate area, including the major boss Putricide Knight as well as the end of Thollier's quests. It is also possible to recover a very useful faith incantation with Superimposed halos of light since the boss that follows it has a weakness to all damage from the sacred.
