Dying Light Guide › Side Quests and Challenges

Chasing Past

Availability: During “The Museum”

Location: Talk to Tariq at the top of an Old Town Safe Zone

Rewards: 10,000 Survivor XP and $2,000

Difficulty: Easy

Talk to Tariq after you get the information about the museum from him. He tries to get your help regarding an orphan he found. The young boy is missing his brother, who might still be alive in Old Town.

Accept the quest from Tariq and go to the southwestern part of the city. Look for a marked door at ground level and enter the building. Climb the stairs and open the door on the first floor (on the right). Search the apartment for clues. You find a recording in there. After listening to it, go upstairs and look in the apartment on the left. You get another recording there, and it sends you down to the basement. Search there and listen to the evidence you find, but return to Apartment 3 (the one of the second floor). There are Keys in the foyer that unlock the door in the basement that you can’t open. Take those Keys.

Go back downstairs and unlock Door #4. See what’s in the room, and then use a good melee weapon to kill the man who comes through the door on the other side. Kill him a lot.

Return to Tariq when it’s all over and talk to him to end the quest… almost. He gives you keys that unlock a treasure room beneath the Museum. You must swim under the lake in the south to find the submerged tunnel that leads to it. Once there, you get into a room with several locked chests. Enjoy the Jewel Boxes and high-end weaponry that’s hidden within. It’s very much worth your time to get it all!
