Let's just get it out in the open. I'm no stranger to love, {name}. Over the years, if there's one thing I've learned, it's that love's tangible treasures last longer than the flames of passion. I've managed to collect my fair share of these gifts - gemstones, rings, necklaces, and the like, and I carry them with me wherever I go. At least I used to... When I was swept from the ship, my valuables were scattered across the sea. Help me recover them and I promise to make it worth your trouble.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Taste For Tail
It could be days before we're ready to make our way to the surface, and to be honest, I'm already beginning to get hungry. I hate to be picky, but when it comes to seafood, I'm afraid there are very few things I can stomach.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Can't Start a Fire Without a Spark
Mack's still out of it, and I fear we may lose him if I can't get this fire started. With the wood being soaked, we'll need something special to get it going. There's an abandoned camp nearby with a barrel of explosives in it. There's no way I can recover it on my own.
