Cover It Up is a romance quest in Palia. Alongside the main and friendship quests, we have romance quests as well. Such quests help players build up connections with different villagers. You will also get other types of quests, such as Proof of Magic and Silver Winging It. These are the main quests.
Villagers in Palia are always up to something, and this time, Reth is in need of your help with some of his illegal stuff. He wants you to pick up some shipments and hide them somewhere safe.
The quest is assigned once you have reached the level 3 romance, Dangerous Dalliance. You will have several things to do to finish up the quest successfully. If you are also having a hard time, then follow this full walkthrough.
How to Solve the Quest Cover It Up in Palia
Reth is going to assign you a task, asking you to cover up his criminal act of transporting some illegal shipments. Previously, Reth somehow successfully covered his acts with a lie, but Ashura didn’t believe him, and he started keeping an eye on him.
Now, Reth is under the radar of Ashura, and he must keep things fully secret. So, he is temporarily changing the locations of his stuff. You are going to help him out with this.
Speak to Reth & Get the Quest
Once you have reached the level 3 romance, Dangerous Dalliance, you can speak to Reth right on your base spot. He will visit you and describe the whole scenario.
What you wanna do is select the dialogue option “I’ll help you move the merchandise”. This will allow you to receive the Cover It Up quest. And now you are involved in Reth’s illegal shipment stuff.
Pick up the Three Shipments
Now that we have the quest, it’s time to roll on and grab those secret packages. We are heading straight to Reth’s storeroom, which is, as we all know, located in the basement area of Ormuu’s Horn Inn. This is in the Kilima Village.
You will find the shipment packages in the hallway of this store. The hallway is actually taking you to the doorway with a dead end. You will find the hallway instantly to the left when entering the storeroom. Grab all three packages from there, and you are ready to hide them at a different location.
Hiding the Shipments at Bahari Bay
There is a secret hidden spot close to the Bahari Bay. It’s actually a hidden alcove that is located between Hideaway Bluffs and Windy Ruins. You will have to look for a cliff wall at this spot, there is an entrance to the cave here.
Enter the cave and deliver the goods in there. And your part of transporting the Reth’s shipments to the new base is done.
Speak to Ashura and Reth
Now, you will return to your home spot and have a conversation with Ashura. He will mention that he has found out what you have been doing in the Bay Area for Reth. He will also mention that Hodari told him you were sneaking at the Baharir Bay.
At the end, he will tell you to bring Reth to the right path and hand you some dinner.
Now, you will have to meet Reth at his storeroom and talk about the whole conversation that happened between you and Ashura. Reth knows, and he will even advise you not to stay too close to him, otherwise you will also get ruined.
But you will have to choose the options to stay up with his things, and you will carry on with the conversation. At the end, Reth will be happy that you are with him no matter what.
This ends the quest, and you will get the following rewards: Fried Catfish Dinner (During Quest), 30 Renown, increased romance with Reth, Reth’s Pin, and 5 boxes of Chocolates.
That’s the full walkthrough for the Palia quest, Cover It Up.
