The "The Hunt for Gisco's Treasure" quest in Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave offers a convenient way to earn gold and renown without leaving the city of Dagsion. However, the quest's riddle can be cryptic, potentially leaving players unsure where to begin their search.
Solving 'The Hunt for Gisco's Treasure'
The quest giver provides a riddle: "A colossus gazes upon Baal's waters. On the stone where she points, something worthy of note." Early in the game, Seteth mentions that the lake surrounding Dagsion is named Lake Baal, establishing the general area for the search. The clue "colossus gazes upon Baal's waters" directs players to look for a statue near the lake.
The port in Lowtown is the most likely location. Situated just east of the Vandahl Trading Company, a single statue can be found. This statue faces east, but the treasure is not immediately visible. Instead, players must follow the path along the harbor side, behind the wall where the statue is pointing. The treasure is located along this path.
Upon retrieving the treasure, returning to the quest giver yields a reward of a Morfis Almanac book, 5,000 gold, and 80 renown. The Morfis Almanac is an uncommon gift, particularly valuable for characters who appreciate rare items, such as Talimun and Catania.
