If you’ve been playing No Rest For the Wicked, there’s a good chance you ran into a man named Finley locked in a cell within the Nameless Pass. Any attempt to open his cell is blocked by the need for a certain Quarry Guard Key, so if you haven’t found it yet, here’s where you can.
How to get the Quarry Guard Key in No Rest For The Wicked (Map)
Unlike most other keys in No Rest For The Wicked, the Quarry Guard Key is rather hidden and well out of the way. The key is located in a hanging cell above the prison where Finley is imprisoned. As the cell is hanging, there is no traditional method or pathway that will allow you to reach it. Instead, you’ll need to do a bit of climbing and careful platforming to reach it.
First things first, if you haven’t already, make your way over to the circular prison ward in Nameless Pass. You’ll find it toward the end of the pass, just before reaching the imperial encampment.
Once you’ve reached the prison area, make your way onto the ruined wall, like you’re going toward the imperial encampment. Transverse the path, following the broken wooden bridge south until you reach a high-reaching vine wall leading toward the encampment.
Climb this vine wall and at the top, you should see a campfire where you can sit down and cook food. From here, follow the rocky path directly south of the campfire. It is a narrow path so watch your footing or you’ll die and have to start this process over.
Continue following the rock path until you reach what appears to be a dead end. Look to the right of the endpoint and you should see a rock slope. Very carefully slide down this slope to a small rocky platform below it. Note that you cannot see this platform until you begin sliding down the slope. Once more, if you mess this up, you will most certainly die and have to begin anew.
From here, you should see a thin wooden path leading to a broken prison cell with an item at its center. Drop down on the wooden path and follow it into the cage. Loot this item and you’ll have obtained the Quarry Guard Key.
Now all that’s left for you to do is return to Finley’s prison cell and free him from his shackles. Finley is a special vendor that only appears in Sacrament at certain times, but I assure you this harrowing platforming excursion was worth the trouble.
