Summary0009770: Quest to kill minotaur in labyrinth, unable to ask directions
DescriptionWhile i was asking my local lord about quests to kill monsters, I was told about a minotaur I must kill. However, even when I looked in "Ask For Directions, I was unable to find this minotaur. This occurred with multiple lords who gave me the same quest.
Steps To Reproduce1. Be an adventurer.
2. Become a hearthperson of a lord.
3. Have them give you a quest to kill a minotaur.
4. Watch aimlessly as you try to find said labyrinth.
Additional InformationI just found out that labyrinths are unique sites, but as of yet I'm unable to see it.
TagsNo tags attached.

I also searched in the quest log, even under "sites" it is not listed, as is the minotaur. Perhaps it is already dead?

This issue seems similar to 0009664. I've seen this happen a lot with quests that involve hunting down legendary beasts/night creatures: neither the name of the beast nor their location is "learned" by the adventurer when the quest is given.
