How to Complete A Devilishly Delicious Dish Quest in Sunken Maw
The quest begins at the Tavern in New Delsta. Inside, you’ll find the Tavern Cook in need of assistance. He’s looking to add more recipes to his menu and help his business thrive with additional customers. So he’s requested that you set out on a quest to locate the cave in the east and retrieve a Delsta Devil.
To reach your destination, take a trip to the Western Clockbank Highroad and catch a boat at the dock. Voyage south along the river until you find yourselves right past Sunken Maw.

When you reach your destination, there is much to explore and a number of chests that contain valuable items.

When conversing with him, he will provide essential insight into the most effective methods of catching the Delsta Devil fish. He advises that in order to lure the creature, you will need to use the “Special Bait.” Fortunately, you don’t have to search for this special bait anywhere, as the Elderly Fishing Enthusiast has this with him. Use your Path actions to either Steal it, Mug it, or Purchase it from him.
Once you have the Special Bait with you, travel back down the ladder, hop on the boat, and head to the right. You will get a pop-up saying “You glimpse the form of a giant fish. Use special bait? Click on “Yes” for an encounter against the Delsta Devil.
