The Solstice Bloom update in Palia brings forth new adventures for the players, including a quest called ‘Zed drop’. In this quest, we carry out a mission for Zeki, given to him by his boss. We need to do some sketchy tasks to forge documents related to an illegal shipment of flow medicine, which involves stealing a seal from Eshe and getting to a dead drop location in Elderwood. This guide will show you how to carry out each of these tasks step by step.
Starting The Zed Drop Quest

To start the quest, speak with Zeki, who’ll inform you that his boss wants him to break into Eshe’s office and steal her official magistrate’s seal. He also mentions he has no idea how he’s gonna do it since Eshe has her eyes on him. So, offer to do it for him. Once the conversation is over, you’ll receive a magic lockpick which you need to use on her drawer.

Now, head over to Eshe’s office, which is located on the first floor of City Hall, on the right. Once you’re at her office, use the lockpick on the drawer, and you’ll obtain the seal. Return to Zeki, and your quest will get updated as Zeki’s boss has given him the dead drop location, which is in Elderwood.

Head to Elderwood and fast travel to the De Mer Dock stables. Head north from the stables until you reach this area where you can jump onto the wooden structure on the water. Interact with the dead drop spot, and your quest will be updated.
Head back to your base and open your mail to find a letter from Zeki. This marks the completion of the quest, and you’ll receive a Lucky Coin.
