To get that quest you will need to teleport to Old Sharlayan and talk to the lady on the bench right next to a glowing box, close the the Aetheryte.

How to finish the Secret in the box quest

Once you get your letter you will need to solve three riddles and interact with specific NPCs, those aren't marked on the map so here's what you need to do:

  • Go to X: 11.7 Y: 8.7 and talk to the NPC standing there
  • Use the /doze emote while clicking on the NPC located in X: 7.9 Y: 13.8
  • Head to X: 8.6 Y: 7.2 click on the little (and cute) animal before writting golden acorn in /say chat

With that the quest is finish you will then receive an accessory chest that contain a ring of ilvl 545 for the job you're playing when opening the chest. This can be very useful when gearing a new job for example.

spelling of golden acorn should be all lower case. It is case sensitive.<br /> Other than that, thank you for the guide. I have opened the shiny box that was bothering me.
