Diablo 4’s massive open world has many regions to explore, full of side quests, enemies, dungeons, and waypoints to unlock to help make your journey a bit easier.
Kehjistan is one of Sanctuary’s largest regions in Diablo 4, and it’s also one of its most treacherous. But there are a few simple side quests you can finish without much hassle or fear, including The Pilgrim’s Footsteps, a simple quest that can be confusing thanks to some weird map design and no hints given as to how to progress it.
How to complete The Pilgrim’s Footsteps quest in Diablo 4
This quest is found in Kehjistan in the Amber Sands region and can be picked up by interacting with the Old Book on the ground. It’s sitting on the ground, sometimes surrounded by enemies, so clear them out before you pick it up.

Once you pick it up, the side quest will begin, tasking you with following in the pilgrim’s footsteps. The area where you need to go next will be marked on the map and can be seen in the image below.
The blue circle shows your destination, so mark it and head in that direction. If you go there from the quest’s starting point, the line may be a bit confusing as it looks like it’s pointing you inside a nearby dungeon. Don’t go inside; instead, follow the pathway to the right and up the stairs. You’ll know you’re in the right area when you see this statue, as depicted below.
Here’s where things may get confusing. The statue is here but there’s nothing to interact with. The play on words here is you must use the “follow” emote in front of the statue to finish the quest.

Once you do it properly, a chest will pop up to the right of the statue. Claim the items inside and the side quest will finish, granting you some XP and some pretty decent loot. Check out the image below to see exactly where the chest will spawn once you do the emote.
Enjoy your new loot and experience, adventurer.
