If you have been eagerly waiting to finish this quest, then follow this guide. How to Complete Mystery Cargo Quest in Palia Meeting Reth Once you have reached the required friendship levels and completed the Piece of Cake quest, speak to Reth once again, and you should get a few dialogue options to choose from. Now, you have to select “What’s in that locked box?” Once you do that, a pop-up will appear indicating the Mystery Cargo quest has begun. Starting the conversation: The box in question is on one of the tables off to the right side of the room and will have a shimmer around it. Asking Reth about it, he states that Zeki threw the key “where no man can survive.” Reth will tell you that Zeki has thrown the key where “no man can survive”. This hint leads to water, which means the key is somewhere in the water of Kilima Valley. The cryptic clue suggests an aquatic location rather than a dangerous combat area. Fishing for the Small Key Now, you have to find the key to satisfy your curiosity! The key can be found in any water in the Kilima Village while you are randomly fishing. However, it’s recommended to fish in the river behind the tavern to increase your chances of finding it sooner rather than later. This specific location yields the highest success rate for catching the Small Key. Whilst the river behind the tavern offers the best chances, you can technically fish the key from any spot that has water in Kilima Village if you prefer exploring different fishing spots. Opening the Mysterious Box & Reading the Mysterious Letter Once you have got your hands on the small key that looks like it would fit the box in Zeki’s storeroom, you can return to the Underground Market and locate the mysterious box that Reth pointed out earlier. Accessing the box: As you open the box, there will be a letter that tells some secrets about Zeki. While you will receive a pop-up explaining that you won’t steal the letter, you will still be able to read the letter. This allows you to learn the contents whilst respecting property boundaries. The letter reveals information about Underground Market operations, connections, and possibly sensitive details about Zeki’s business dealings that provide context for the secretive nature of the cargo. Confronting Zeki About the Letter Ask Zeki about the letter. Talk to Zeki to complete the quest and discuss what you’ve discovered in the mysterious box. Final conversation: Approach Zeki and initiate dialogue about the letter you found. His response provides closure to the mystery, whilst potentially affecting your relationship and understanding of Underground Market dynamics. Quest Rewards Upon successfully completing the quest, you will be rewarded with 500x Gold. FAQs How do I start the Mystery Cargo quest?
