The Secret of the Spring Walkthrough explains that a red star can be used to locate an Altar of Lilith, which is a wonderful addition to the path. This information can be found in the walkthrough. Have a Discussion with the Note That Was Discarded (the First Step)In the vicinity, you will find a note that appears to have been crumpled up and is now lying flat on the ground. You can read in a variety of ways, depending on how you use the device. The following message, which has been purposefully written to be very cryptic, is going to be sent to you:Beacon of warmth in the embrace of winter, patience rewarded by grace bestowed by nature itself. Beacon of warmth in the embrace of winter. In the chilly grip of winter, a beacon of comfort and warmth. Try to decipher how the riddle involving the notes can be solved. Because the note itself does not provide you with a significant amount of information, you will have to rely on various other sources. On the other hand, if you examine your map in great detail, you'll notice that there is a region that is outlined in light blue to the northeast:
After you have arrived at your destination, you will have to travel through the region that is known as the Trough of Orobas. In this part of the landscape, you will come across a rock-cut pool of a certain size. There is nothing remarkable or noteworthy about it, and there is nothing that distinguishes it from anything else; a cursory examination reveals as much. It is nothing more than a large puddle, and the area around it is nothing but empty space. The only thing that surrounds it is the puddle itself.
This is yet another quest involving the Action Wheel or Emotes, and while it is similar to the quests involving the Traveler's Prayer and Raising Spirits, there is a significant difference between the three of them. After you had completed those two quests, the necessary emote would be added to one of the game's default wheels automatically. You will not receive the Wait emote when you play Secret of the Spring, despite the fact that it is necessary for the portion of the puzzle that acknowledges and rewards players for their capacity to show patience. Simply pressing the E button will bring up either the Action Wheel or the Emotes, depending on which you want to see. Simply by clicking the button that is situated directly below the wheel, you will have the ability to customize it. Take a look at the tab that's titled "Emotes," if you haven't already. It will appear as though the default setting for the status is Not Assigned when you use the Wait command. Choose Wait, and then click and drag the circle down until it fits into one of the open spots on your wheel (you can select a different wheel by using the scroll button on your mouse).
Once it is properly positioned, release the mouse button. When you are satisfied that it is in the desired location, you can let go of the mouse button. Simply clicking on the blank space where the assignment should go is all that is required to hand it off. You can also replace it by dragging it over an emote that you aren't using at the moment and dropping it in its place. This is yet another option. This is yet another alternative. You can exit the Customize interface by selecting it, making modifications, and then selecting the Save Changes button in the bottom-right corner of the screen. Simply keep pressing the E button over and over to unlock the wheel. You will need to click the Wait button that has been presented to you while you are still standing next to the spring. You can do this while you are still standing there. You will learn how to use the Action Wheel in its entirety, including all of its features, by watching this video, which will walk you through the following steps:
Step 3: Dig up the Treasure Chest That Was HiddenOnce you have shown the required level of patience and completed the portion of the quest that requires it, a Buried Chest will appear nearby for you to open. Inside the chest, you will find whatever it is the quest requires you to find. You are going to have to bust open the chest in order to successfully complete the quest and claim your rewards.
