How To Open The Chest At Hubble Castle

When players reach the Hubble region (in the Past), they will soon be able to visit Hubble Castle and roam around its walls and towers. In one of such towers, there's a Chest that cannot be opened with the Magic or Thieve's Key, but needs to be unlocked with a certain method.

The man next to the chest will tell players something about 'following the path of the cross,' and since the room where the chest is hidden has a cross shape, it's logical that the solution is to follow a certain path through the doors to make the chest budge. Here's the right solution:

  1. Starting at the left door with the Statue next to it, players should move to the right side and cross the door.
  2. Next, go upwards and turn left, then, go down and cross the door.
  3. Continue straight to exit through the door with the man standing next to it, and the chest should open.

Players will receive a Glowing Holy Water Bottle, but the Wandmaker apprentice will take it from their hands, promising to reward them when they later come to visit him.

This happens after players complete Hubble's Main Story quest, and when they return later to meet the Wandmaker apprentice, he will gift them with a powerful weapon that can sometimes cast two spells instead of one.
