Riddle Description

“My lover lived in the Petrified Valley and I, in the Ancient Pearl. To Eresos I had to go in order to see my girl. But there was a sonorous crack halfway through, and blue was what I reaped. The wooden behemoth groaned and creaked, and at the bottom of the river we began to sleep.”

Treasure Location

Head to a broken bridge near Eresos, east of the fort. Jump into the water beneath the bridge and interact with a specific spot to locate your treasure.
