When you're inside, continue down the Hallway until you reach the end of the room. Hit the glowing cores in the room to power up the facility. Once you're done, head to the elevator room that will lead you down to the basement.

Once you've entered the secret hole, just keep going until you end up in a room where Eva is. Talk to her and she'll likely give you the first Vesticrest. Note that there are certain requirements that need to be met before you can get the Vesticrest.

For the yellow, despite some people in the comments saying it's wrong, I think the "use 3 lockets" is actually a requirement, but perhaps there's a second requirement linked to total amount of crests like there is for the blue vesticrest. I had 2 memory lockets used, when i reached this. I used one more (3 total), and then I was offered the yellow vesticrest. So I think i had 4 total crests unlocked at the moment.

WRONG, just fully unlocked reaper's crest (aka 3 memory lockets used) and nothing. if only they had comments visible without clicking on it
