Overview

Correspondence is a world quest in The Edge of Fate set on Kepler. Sources disagree on pickup: one says it unlocks after the Exile's Accord and Central Academy Strangelets, then you interact with a chess piece in the Curtilage Divide; another credits the Drifter and says it unlocks after the ninth step of the main quest. It takes around 30 minutes.

  1. Locate the Aionian historian Malthas.
  2. Find an encoded chess piece using the markers.
  3. Return the piece to Malthas.
  4. Collect 9 more chess pieces across Kepler by following radar indicators.
  5. Return the collection to Dean Rebecca in the Caldera.
