The two mortals couldn't overcome Strahd's powers and present the Holy Symbol, but Jander did despite the fact it would harm him as much as Strahd. They used it in their confrontation with Strahd as well. An elven vampire named Jander Sunstar, pursuing the one who had driven his love Anna insane, traveled with a priest and thief named Sasha and Leisl to Ravenloft and discovered the Holy Symbol, using it to put the vengeful ghost of Sergei von Zarovich to rest.
