Find the klaxon in Keeper Lilo's Cave

The klaxon for An Important Addition is in Keeper Lilo's Cave. John the Fifth gives you the quest after you report that all three tuning forks at the signal tower, Ghoul Tower, and Matthias' shrine are functioning.

02

Get An Important Addition from John

  • Finish the tuning fork objectives at the signal tower, Ghoul Tower, and Matthias' shrine so all three forks are functioning.
  • Report the functioning forks to John the Fifth to receive An Important Addition.
  • Check that your journal asks you to find the klaxon in Keeper Lilo's Cave before collecting it.

Klaxon location and purpose

ItemUseHow to Get It
KlaxonA mountable trawler horn that provides the powerful sound needed for progression toward The Throat.Recover it from Keeper Lilo's Cave for An Important Addition.
04

Follow the journal to the klaxon

  1. Read An Important Addition in your journal to identify Keeper Lilo's Cave as your destination.
  2. Search Keeper Lilo's Cave for the requested klaxon.
  3. Mount the recovered klaxon on your trawler so you can use it as the boat's horn.
05

Keep a save before collecting the horn

Keep a save from before picking up the klaxon, especially if An Important Addition is not active yet. Players have reported that collecting it early can leave it unavailable when the quest begins. An earlier save gives you a way to revisit the pickup after receiving John's request.

06

Recovering a missing klaxon

I picked up the klaxon before the quest and now it's gone. Can I recover it?
Start by checking the place where you left it. A player found a previously dropped klaxon beneath the Dry Dock floor geometry, so inspect that area if you dropped yours there. If you still cannot retrieve it, consider loading an earlier save from before the original pickup; this is a player-suggested workaround.
