As you make your way through the game, you’ll encounter a lot of different quests. Some have you fighting creatures and other wizards, some have you crafting potions, and many have you finding random items in the overworld.
An early side quest you’ll encounter is the one that has you finding all of the Daedalian Keys hidden throughout the school. Because there are 16 in total, it can be a bit challenging to find them all on your own in an efficient and time-friendly manner.
If you are looking for the Daedalian keys, this guide will show you where all 16 are hidden!
