locked chest in dorve ruins

[RTBear]

i found a locked chest in a broken tower to the right of dorve ruins after the ice giant quest, can't find the key.

[Uunn]

Bump. Anyone know where the key is?

[Uunn]

Found it I think. After completing all quest activies on the island I went back to the signpost of Dorve Ruins ready to get out of there, and then I spotted a skeleton that showed up in red with witcher senses.

I didn't see it the first time passing through the villiage so you probably have to go back and look around. It started a new treasure hunt quest and it had a key as well. Literally just found it so not sure if it goes to that chest but I feel it would only make sense if it did.

Can comfirm that it was the key to that chest. Hope this is helpful to anyone struggling in the future.

Thanks Uunn for following up on your search and sharing your finding. I just finished your suggested serch and I can confirm your findings are valid--both the skelton and key to the tower.

I would like to add to your obervation to other readers of this tread: The loot in the chest is not worth the trouble. Also be aware that on the return trip to Dorve Ruins and to the tower, expect to see wraiths (in my game, this may be caused by the night time hours).

Yeah, I got some cured leather and saltpeter....

Just want to add that this key and map are part of a quest.
