Steps to Complete the Quest

1. Initiate the Quest:

   • After completing the "Light Over the Sea" quest, speak with Joan, the innkeeper at the Greyshore Inn.

   • Inquire about the Old Lightkeeper; Joan will request you to deliver a meal to him.

2. Locate the Old Lightkeeper's Campsite:

   • Sail to the lighthouse island using the repaired boat north of Greyshore.

   • Enter the cave and navigate to the Old Lightkeeper's campsite.

3. Investigate the Campsite:

   • Upon arrival, you'll find the campsite abandoned.

4. Find the Old Lightkeeper's Final Resting Place:

   • Exit the cave and head northeast of the lighthouse.

   • Locate a gate leading to another boat; open the gate and interact with the boat to sail to a new island.

   • On this island, walk eastward around the curve to discover a grave and the Old Lightkeeper.

   • Read the journal beside him to learn about his final journey.

5. Complete the Quest:

   • Reading the journal concludes the quest, providing closure to the Old Lightkeeper's story.
