Hey there! Ready to tackle another quest in Dragon Quest XI S? This one, "The Soldier and the Strategist," is pretty straightforward and a nice way to get a little extra reward. Let's dive in!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Where to Start: First things first, you'll need to be in Heliodor. After you've made your way into the city, head towards the big stairs that lead up to the Royal Quarter. Look to the left of these stairs – you should spot a man standing there. That's your quest giver!
  2. 2
    The Task: Chat with him, and he'll tell you he's looking for a book that details the amazing deeds of the Kingdom's heroes. He'll suggest you try looking east of the town.
  3. 3
    Finding the Book: So, head out of the main area and make your way to the far east side of Heliodor. Keep an eye out for a house tucked away in the corner. Go inside this house, and you'll find a bookshelf. Interact with the bookshelf, and voilà! You'll find the book you're looking for.
  4. 4
    Returning the Book: Now that you've got the book, all that's left is to return it to the quest giver. Head back to where you found him (left of the Royal Quarter stairs) and hand over the book.

Tips
  • Don't worry if you can't find the house immediately; just explore the eastern edge of Heliodor carefully. It's usually in a corner.
  • This quest is a great early-game boost, so it's definitely worth doing!
