To begin the “Treasure Map – Earthly Aegis"side quest inAvowed,you’ll first need to reach the second main region of the Living Lands, theEmerald Stair. Once you’ve entered this lush alien-like jungle, you must visit the Naku Tedek Grounds region. The perfect place to start, either as a fast-travel point, or an exploration landmark, is the Neku Tadek Party Camp.
From the camp, you’ll have access to the front of the temple, which is exactly where you want to be. If you look towards the front of the temple, you should see a Priestess of Berath near a large grouping of animancy equipment. If you look to her right, you’ll see a pickable plant just beyond a bunch of blue mushrooms. At the plant, jump over the railing, and you should be looking down at the side of the temple.
If you walk to the end of the path along the temple, you should see a small shrine, and a small wood-fired stove on the right. If you walk past the stove, you should see a large tree branch that leads out to a wall with a hole you can jump through. If you jump into the structure, you’ll find a chest in the corner of the room that contains theEarthly Aegis treasure map.

At the end of the root, you’ll reach a section of the wall that is open, but covered in vines and roots. If you look along the right side of the entrance wall, you may see a button between two roots.
