Quests

Quests are bonus activities primarily offered to the player immediately before sailing from London. Only one quest is proposed prior to each expedition. The player is always given the choice to reject the quest with no negative consequence. At the return to London, if the quest has been successfully completed, the player is rewarded. Key Items obtained for a quest must be in the player's possession upon completing an expedition, and cannot be sold or traded at any point.

Because quests primarily reward Funds, they do not directly affect your place in the competition. Instead, they can ease your journey through port supplies purchasing, location marking and/or increasing your local Standing.
