Here, you will learn which NPC you should see in order to receive a quest and where to go to complete it. All major locations are accompanied with maps. The following elements are marked on the maps: characters we meet in the game world, hidden secrets, chests and other treasure containers, crafting ingredients, traps, secret passages, aggressive opponents, and bosses that are especially difficult to defeat.
Ondra's Gift it's a district of Defiance Bay City. Got the name because it was a wetland that was drained back in the imperial days. Now, it's a seedy district populated by sailors, common folk, and more than a few thugs, but it's a fun place, too, if you know where to look. Look for a place called the Salty Mast when you're there. Other than that it's mostly warehouses and abandoned homes.

NPC: Dodwyna
As you enter the room, you see several figures huddled together. They stand at attention - armed, but not in matched gear like the Crucible Knights. At the center of the group, one woman looms over another, holding a flail. She snarls at the cowering figure.
"You've got pages of research here. You expect me to believe this was just your scratchwork?"

Vianna was tricked by members of the Dozens. Now, they're interrogating her about her research for the Crucible Knights. The ringleader must have confiscated her notes.Give Vianna's research to Dunstan.

Odda's son, Derrin, has been missing for two days. She has to care for her Hollowborn child at home, so she's asked me to search for him.
Odda last saw Derrin when he left with his father to go fishing at the docks. Perhaps I should speak with the sailors and fishermen in Ondra's Gift.
NPC: Noble

After visiting The Salty Mast

NPC: Curnd Merchant
Password is "Yc Nybeon Eyldfeon"
An old man paces the dock and looks out over the water. He's fussing over something large and round, which he constantly shifts from one hand to the other.
You're not certain whether his wide-eyed, gape-mouthed expression marks surprise or fear. It seems he isn't, either. "You, uh, don't look like a guard..." He examines you - and your equipment - more closely. "Say, you wouldn't be interested in making some coppers, would you?"
NPC: Imatl
QUEST: Clandestine Cargo Clandestine Cargo
I met Imatl, an old deckhand in Ondra's Gift. He was part of a riverboat crew carrying several crates of cargo, including a few boxes of Engwithan artifacts. Several suits of armor from Cliaban Rilag attacked the crew, causing the ship to run aground.
Now, Imatl's looking for someone to retrieve three missing pieces of a broken Engwithan scepter. He knows an animancer who would be willing to buy the artifact if all of the parts are found.
Find the missing pieces of the Engwithan scepter in Ondra's Gift.
Imatl told me that the other pieces of the artifact will probably have washed into the shallows around the docks. I might be able to figure out what this item is - and get a better price for it - if I find all of the missing pieces.

Fortunately for Marceno, his captain is enjoying himself on shore, and has yet to hear of the incident. Marceno has pleaded with me to find this chest before the captain returns. It is unlikely they've made it out of Ondra's Gift yet, I should start my search here.
For Brave Derrin Quest
Marceno, a local deckhand, told me that Derrin came by a few days ago asking to play on the ship. Marceno refused and saw the kid heading towards The Salty Mast, a local brothel.
