Now the colors of the pins on the map match the colors of the crystals. :)

The colored crystals that once were placed randomly all over the map have now been split into quadrants of the map. As I was picking them up today I noticed that I've been finding them in different areas from where they are shown on the map above. Here's what I found:
Blue: Southeast
Green: Northeast
Red: Southwest
Yellow: Northwest.

Description

I'm sure you've noticed 'em, {name}. They're everywhere! What am I talking about? Why, the crystals, of course! The crystals... They're all over the crater. Most people ignore them, but I have a strange feeling that they hold power within them. Say, I'm running a little low on the crystals I have here -- think you might be able to collect some more for me? You'll find yellow crystals to the northwest, red crystals to the... oh, I'm sure you'll figure it out.
