Learn how to complete the 'A Royal Secret' side story in Octopath Traveler. Find the Inquiring Youth in Stonegard and uncover the secrets of the Ventus Dynasty.
Alright, let's tackle the 'A Royal Secret' side story in Octopath Traveler! This one's pretty straightforward and gives you some nice rewards. You'll need to have either Alfyn or Cyrus in your party to start, so make sure one of them is ready to go.
First up, head to Stonegard. Look for an Inquiring Youth hanging out near the fountain in the northern part of town. He's super curious about the Ventus Dynasty and why the third king apparently stopped painting. Chat with him to kick things off.
The quest will send you to a dungeon called the Tomb of Kings. To get there, you'll need to leave Stonegard and head through North Stonegard Pass, and then into West Stonegard Pass. The Tomb of Kings is located in the southern area of West Stonegard Pass. Keep in mind, this is a Danger Level 25 dungeon, so be prepared!
Once you're inside the Tomb of Kings, find the NPC named the Nameless Gravekeeper. Use the 'Inquire' (with Cyrus) or 'Scrutinize' (with Alfyn) ability on him to get the Gravekeeper’s Information. Grab that intel and head back to the Inquiring Youth in Stonegard to wrap up the story.
Alternative Solution:
There's another way to finish this side story if you've got Primrose or Ophilia in your party instead! Go to the Stonegard Valleys area of town. You're looking for a Patrician Youth who's standing near the church. Use Primrose's 'Guide' or Ophilia's 'Allure' ability on him. Once you've got him in tow, just bring him back to the original Inquiring Youth in Stonegard, and the quest will be completed!
