Palia Special Donations Quest: All 7 Treasures

The “Special Donations” quest in Palia asks you to find and donate seven specific treasures to the museum in Kilima Village. These are not the common bundles you turn in for the main Vaults; they are a separate set of rare items that unlock a special reward once all are placed.

Formula

This quest doesn’t use a formula—it’s a collection task. You gather seven named treasures and donate each to the museum’s collection. The only “formula” is the list itself: each item is found in a specific location, often after completing a related quest or reaching a certain skill level. The reward is a single unique furniture item, not a formula-based outcome.

Worked Example

Since there’s no calculation, a worked example would be: you find the “Ancient Battery” in the flooded ruins, then donate it. Repeat for each of the seven. After the seventh donation, the museum curator sends you a letter with the reward. That’s the entire process.

What Are the 7 Treasures?

The seven treasures are:

• Ancient Battery – found in the Underground Ruins, requires the “A Temple’s Secret” quest.
• Belt of the Hunter – from the Temple of the Gales, after completing the main quest there.
• Belt of the Flame – from the Temple of the Flame, after defeating the final boss.
• Belt of the Root – from the Temple of the Root, after completing the temple’s puzzle.
• Belt of the Storm – from the Temple of the Storm, after the main quest.
• Belt of the Waves – from the Temple of the Waves, after the main quest.
• Belt of the Wind – from the Temple of the Wind, after the main quest.

Note: The five belts are all obtained from the five elemental temples, each unlocked after you finish the corresponding main story quest. The Ancient Battery is the only one that comes from a separate, smaller ruin.

How to Start the Special Donations Quest

The quest begins automatically once you’ve completed the main story quest “The Mysterious Ruins” and have access to the museum. Speak to Jina or the curator, Elouisa, and they’ll mention the special collection. You don’t need to talk to a specific NPC to trigger it; it appears in your quest log after you’ve donated the first item (usually the Ancient Battery).

To donate, go to the museum in Kilima Village, interact with the donation bin, and select the treasure from your inventory. The item is consumed, and you’ll see it displayed in the museum.

Where to Find Each Treasure

Each treasure is tied to a specific location and often a prerequisite quest:

• Ancient Battery: In the Flooded Ruins, south of Kilima. You’ll need to solve a puzzle involving water levels. This is the easiest to get early.
• Belt of the Hunter: In the Temple of the Gales, located in the northern part of Bahari Bay. Requires the quest “A Temple’s Secret” to enter.
• Belt of the Flame: In the Temple of the Flame, inside the volcano on the east side of Bahari Bay. Requires “The Fire Temple” quest.
• Belt of the Root: In the Temple of the Root, in the ruins of the ancient city. Requires “The Root Temple” quest.
• Belt of the Storm: In the Temple of the Storm, on an island west of Bahari. Requires “The Storm Temple” quest.
• Belt of the Waves: In the Temple of the Waves, underwater in the coral reef. Requires “The Waves Temple” quest.
• Belt of the Wind: In the Temple of the Wind, high in the mountains. Requires “The Wind Temple” quest.

Each temple is only accessible after you’ve progressed the main story far enough to unlock the corresponding quest. If you haven’t seen a temple, you’re likely not far enough in the story.

Reward for Donating All 7

Once you donate all seven treasures, you’ll receive a letter from Elouisa thanking you and a unique furniture item: the Ancient Vault (a decorative chest that plays a soft chime when opened). It’s purely cosmetic, but it’s a nice trophy for completionists. There’s no title or achievement tied to it, just the furniture.

Common Problems and Misconceptions

Many players think the belts are random drops or that they can be sold. They are not. Each belt is a guaranteed reward from the temple’s main puzzle—you can’t miss it if you complete the temple. If you think you’ve lost one, check your inventory’s “Quest Items” tab; they don’t take up regular bag space.

Another misconception: you don’t need to do the temples in any order. You can do them as they unlock. Also, donating is permanent—you can’t get the item back, but you don’t need it for anything else.

If you’re missing a belt, double-check that you’ve actually completed the temple’s final puzzle and not just the entrance. Some temples have a second room with the belt.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to complete the main story to get all 7?
Yes, you need to finish the main story quests that unlock the five elemental temples. The Ancient Battery is available earlier, but the belts are tied to those temple quests.

Can I sell or drop a treasure?
No, they are quest items and cannot be sold, dropped, or traded. They stay in your quest items tab until donated.

What if I donated one but forgot which?
You can check the museum’s display cases to see which are missing. Each treasure has a plaque with its name.

Is the reward worth it?
It’s a decorative item, so if you enjoy collecting furniture, yes. If not, you can skip it—it doesn’t affect gameplay.

Do I need to be a certain level to enter the temples?
No, but you need to have the required quest active. Some temples have combat, so having decent gear helps, but it’s not level-gated.
