You uncover something of interest (just outside the village of Arinbjorn in Ard Skellig), the remains of a merchant’s cart.
There is usually a “glittering” indication that there’s something worth checking at the location, so loot it! In this example, you find some notes and a key.
| ITEM: Quest Items: Itirant Merchant Notes, Small Chest Key |
If there’s a note, always check your Quest Items menu and read it. Sometimes it holds a clue to where treasure can be found. In this example, it doesn’t. There is writing from the merchant about how safe he feels on his travels. Not any more though, it seems.
By now, a “hidden treasure” message should have appeared on your screen. However, there usually isn’t any indication where the chest is. In this example, you have to descend to the edge of the nearby lake, slay a group of drowners, and then swim out (using your Witcher Senses) into the lake to spot the underwater chest. Dive down, using the small chest key to loot the chest, and your hunt is complete!
