Detailed WalkthroughEdit

The quest start location is a chest near a shipwreck southwest of Saintsport, on a close island. Open the chest to find a letter and shovel. Read the letter. The letter becomes Captain Izad's Letter in your inventory. (It should be read, too, for Eidetic Memory purposes.)

The first clue is a lighthouse. Head northeast through Saintsport and you'll see the lighthouse, just north of the Saintsport docks. Go inside and head up to the top. Look north, toward the large ship in the harbor, then look to the left of the ship to see a tall statue. That's the Eternal Sentinel. Exit the lighthouse and go to the Sentinel.

When you reach the Sentinel, follow the wall west of you, around to the north, until you reach the Port Hunding wayshrine. Go up to it and then head northwest until you see a small statue. That statue is the Warrior. Make sure you walk up to the statue, so you can trigger the next step in the quest.

From there, head directly south until you trigger the next quest step. Stop. Looking slightly left, you'll see palm trees framing a small, distant island with a ruin. Head southeast past the palm trees and start swimming until you come to the island. Stand in the center of this island and look southwest. The stone outcropping pointing southwest is the rocky finger.

Head southwest, fighting Sea Drakes along the way. The broken ship is just a little ahead. Walk directly through the middle of the broken ship to trigger the next clue, in order to be able find the rocks of the next step. Keep moving in the area of the broken ship until you actually find the ship.

Pass through the wreckage and head southwest until you find a rock formation that resembles a small ship. Approaching the formation will trigger the next quest step and four digging areas will appear. You only need one: Swim through the water to the northwest of the rocks ("the port" that "the ship" seems to be docked in) until you reach the head of "the port" and find some disturbed soil. Dig up the soil to reveal a chest. Open the chest to complete the quest and get your reward.

NotesEdit

  • After starting the quest by taking the contents of the unearthed chest, as well as even after completing the quest, the chest can continue to be interacted with and opened, with no visible effects.

Notes
* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
