Unwrapping the Festive Fun: Palia’s Winterlight Present Locations

Cozy MMO Palia’s First Winter Holiday Event: A Festive Scavenger Hunt

The enchanting world of Palia, a cozy MMO, is now adorned with the festive spirit of its first winter holiday event. Players are invited to partake in a delightful scavenger hunt for seven elusive winterlight presents, adding a touch of magic to the holiday season. To guide adventurers on their merry quest, a letter from the character Zeki has been dispatched, providing hints to the whereabouts of these hidden treasures. However, some of Zeki’s clues might be a tad cryptic, leaving several players in need of additional assistance.

Discover Every Palia Present Location for the 2023 Winter Holiday Event

For those seeking to complete their collection of festive decorations in Palia, here’s a list of all the Winterlights chests and where to find them:

1. A barrel of laughs at the inn

Hint: Look up

The first present is cleverly placed on top of the large ale barrel outside the Kilima Village Inn. To reach it, enter the inn, ascend to the upstairs balcony in Ashura’s room, and from there, jump onto the roof to easily climb onto the barrel.

2. Milling about in the wind near Zeki’s house

Hint: Zeki’s house is north of town.

Identify Zeki’s house by its location on a ridge near the library. The sought-after present rests beneath the large windmill in his yard.

3. Under a bridge near a watery ridge

Hint: Look for a stone bridge, not a wood one.

Amidst the numerous bridges in Kilima Village, find the white stone bridge northwest of town, directly south of the Mirror Pond Ruins. The present is easily spotted sitting in the water underneath.

4. Watching the Ormuu clip-clopping

Hint: Delaila and Badruu’s family are ranchers as well as farmers.

At the Leafhopper Hills farm, search the rafters of the feed structure on the north side of the Ormuu pen to find the present.

5. Watching the boathouse from a cliff up high

Hint: The boathouse is on the docks west of the Remembrance Garden.

On the large, round hill between the coast and Leafhopper Hills farm, locate the present on a ledge partway down facing towards the coast.

6. Teetering close to a watery swim

Hint: This chest is about to take a fall from a dock.

Head east along the coast from the boathouse to a small wooden dock. The chest is perched on a wooden pole out in the water.

7. In a big pile

Hint: The big pile is close to a Winterlights tree in town.

Find this holiday chest in a snow pile near a decorated tree, located in the small covered pavilion between City Hall and the central stables.
