Ceremonial Cup
Ceremonial Cup is a Dark and Darker quest assigned by the Treasurer merchant, part of the Future Investments quest line. I’ve heard whispers—dark rumors—of a chalice, one used in the first rituals. It’s said to lie hidden in the Forgotten Castle, a relic of blood and shadows. I don’t need to tell you that it’s no ordinary artifact. It’s something far darker. Something that could give us the answers we desperately seek, or drag us deeper into this abyss. I need you to find it before it’s too late. The darkness is spreading, and we need to understand what secrets it holds before they consume us all. There are 2 objectives to complete: Bring 1× Silver Chalice; Bring 1× Gold Chalice A. All progress requires a successful extraction — items retrieved or kills made during a failed run do not count toward quest completion. Once every objective is fulfilled, return to Treasurer in the lobby to turn in the quest and receive the reward. This quest requires completing Misplaced Muffin before it becomes available from Treasurer. Completing Ceremonial Cup rewards 100 Gold, Random Rare Armor, 3x Luck Potion, 200 XP. The quest is completed in Ice Cavern, Goblin Caves, Ruins or Ship Graveyard. Merchant quests in Dark and Darker are one of the most consistent gold and experience sources in the game, independent of loot luck on the Trading Post. Completing the full Treasurer quest chain unlocks higher reward tiers and increases merchant affinity, which can affect prices and open additional quest tiers in future seasons. The Future Investments chain provides a structured progression path through the Treasurer quest tree, and finishing each quest in order is the fastest route to the higher value objectives later in the line. Use the MetaBot Dark and Darker quest tracker to check all open objectives across every active merchant before extracting, so you can turn in multiple quests from a single run and get the most value out of each session.

I’ll send it to someone more skilled in these matters to confirm our findings. In the meantime, I’ve been informed of other pressing issues that will require your attention sooner rather than later.”
