There are plenty of side quests within Hogwarts Legacy that send you off to collect a number of items and, usually, they reward you greatly. The Daedalian Keys side quest is given to you by Nellie Oggspire in the Transfiguration Courtyard. She’ll tell you about the keys and where to find the first one and what the tokens hidden inside are used for. Once you’ve spoken to her and found the first key, the Daedalian Keys will begin appearing around the castle for you to follow.

How To Play the Daedalian Key Mini Game
