Walkthroughs & video

Detailed wiki reference, unknown patch

Version unknown · Older walkthrough. Check against your current objective.

  1. Visit one of Ban Pa’s two main entrances to the north or south. The older reference says one entrance is sufficient, but the exact current trigger boundary is missing.

  2. Collect the avian sample at the dovecot in the southern part of the village. The water sample is described at the well in front of Elder’s House in the village centre.

  3. The ground sample is described at a pillar in the northern part of the village. Follow the active in-game sampling interaction and hand the samples to Handshake.

  4. For the inhabitants’ identity, the reference lists the Ban Pa Elder’s Room Key. It describes a possible key on a table inside a stilt house. Open the room on Elder’s House’s upper storey and read the diary on the desk. The exact key house and current spawn are not visually verified.
