Spirits of the Dalish Quest in Dragon Age: The Veilguard
In this Dragon Age: The Veilguard Guide, after completing the main story quest titled The Smuggled Relic Case, you can journey to Arlathan Forest to unlock the Spirits of the Dalish side quest. Follow this guide to quickly locate all Dalish mementos and boost your reputation with the Veil Jumpers.
Find 5 Dalish Mementos
To kick off the quest, go to the docks you visited during Shadows Crossing, where you’ll find a Spirit waiting on a boat. Speak to it, then head into the forest to start searching for mementos.
All five mementos are in the northern woods. Track the quest and follow the right-hand path after entering. You’ll encounter some standard enemies along this route. Climb onto a shipwreck in the water and examine the bodies to collect your first memento.
Move forward under the bridge into the next area, where you'll see a trap rune. Activate it to destroy the wall behind it, and inside the newly revealed cave, you’ll find the second memento. Continue deeper into the woods. After taking the first right, you’ll face a group of demons; once defeated, search atop some rocks nearby for the third memento.
Retrace your steps, then head further south into the forest, where you’ll encounter more demons. Take them out and locate a broken Eluvian mirror within the objective area for the fourth memento. Proceed south from this part of the forest and take the first right. Follow the trail of deer remains to find the final memento behind a rock.
