Use a Scrying Pool to speak with Cerberus

Eliminate anything to see if they took the Artifact

The second quest involves defeating twenty enemies to see if they have Cerberus' Artifact. You can eliminate any living creatures, including enemy players, NPCs, Henchmen, bosses, and even chickens and frogs. I targeted chickens because they're plentiful on the map. Defeat 20 living creatures to move on to the next part.

Did I leave it at the Windmill with the view of the Styx?

The third stage of the Cerberus' Snapshot quests requires you to check if the Artifact is hidden at the Windmill with the view of the Styx. This refers to The Other Windmill, located northwest of the Grim Gate POI. Near the windmill, there's a dig site where you'll find the first Artifact. For exact directions, check our guide.

I left it near the snow, where people bury yummy bones too

The next clue suggests that another Artifact is buried in a Cemetery near the snow. This is the only Cemetery Landmark, located north of the Reckless Railways POI. Go there and dig up the third artifact to advance.

Defeat Cerberus to gain his tracking abilities

This challenge requires you to defeat Cerberus to gain his tracking abilities. It's uncertain if assisting in the kill counts or if you must deliver the final blow. When I was at the Grim Gate, someone had already summoned Cerberus, and I finished off both the player and Cerberus. After defeating him, you can proceed to the next challenge.

Follow the scent of and collect the Artifact

In this part of the questline, use your new tracking abilities to locate the Artifact. Head to the Pleasant Piazza named location and follow the yellow tracks on the ground. These will lead you to nine marks that will guide you to the hidden Artifact in a room. Collect it to move forward.

Use a Scrying Pool to speak with the Oracle

After completing the previous tasks, visit a Scrying Pool again to talk with the Oracle and finish the Cerberus' Snapshot questline. You will be rewarded with a Cerberus Spray and 90,000 XP for your efforts.
