How To Trigger Partners In A Dangerous Crime Quest In Dragon Age: The Veilguard

The Partners in a Dangerous Crime quest in Dragon Age: The Veilguard starts with talking to Chance at the Crows base. Next, you are guided to a location where the spies were in the last scene. Upon arrival, Rook must defeat a couple of enemies and then search for clues left by the spies, which are found on the dock near the boats.

The key to knowing which one to light first is by looking at the candles next to the brazier. First, head south near the stairs and light the brazier with one candle next to it, then go to the other side of the stairs and light one with two candles. Proceed north and ignite the third one with three candles and finally light the final brazier next to the storage door to solve the puzzle in Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

Once the door is unlocked, players will discover the 'spies' are actually lovers meeting in secret. Go to the nearby cafe and read the clue near the merchant. It turns out the lovers were found and players have a choice to make.

Keep in mind this quest is only available if you choose to save Treviso instead of Minrathous.

Rook will also receive The Gratitude of Lovers letter later on.
