The Seed of Ruin

I have a request for you... It is for the royal family, for Valencia. Do you remember the key that you recovered for us? The gold key you recovered from the stone chamber. You have secretly given it to one of my brothers but all of my siblings have found out. That key is the symbol of the royal family of Valencia. Holding it gives legitimacy to the King. However...that key will lead the royal family and all of Valencia to ruin. The key must be disposed of before my brothers raise their swords against each other! The safety of my brothers is more important to me than the legitimacy of the royal family. Please retrieve that key for me. For the royal family...to ask an adventurer like you to steal for them is not honorable... But, there isn't much time. You must get the key...before the storm comes.

The key will most likely be hidden somewhere in the palace. Many people come and go there, but it is foremost the residence of the king. Not even the nobility can come and go as they please. The late king, my father, used to hide important items in shabby jars or boxes. My brothers probably do the same. They key is very likely to be hidden somewhere unexpected.

You've returned earlier than expected. Valencia and Aal shall remember your sacrifice.
