After that, Helsik will give you the necessary items to start the ritual to enter hell. Once you have them in your possession, you must go up to the second floor of the place to complete the ritual.

Complete The House of Hope Quest in Baldur’s Gate 3
You will find the Orphic Hammer in the Archive room, but it is protected and cannot be accessed directly. By talking to the Archivist and expressing interest in the Orphic Hammer, you may get an invitation to stay in Raphael’s room. There, you can interact with Haarlep, who will surrender the safe’s key one way or another.
The safe is hidden behind Raphael’s portrait to the bed’s left. Deactivate the trap on the painting and pick up a note with the password to deactivate the magical protection that guards the Orphic Hammer. To complete the House of Hope, you must face Raphael in combat and some flaming spheres, cambions, and Spectators. Finishing him off will complete this quest.
