Ok guys, I need some help. Here is what the map says:

The map has a large 'X' marked in the middle of it. Near the marking, you can see several dotted lines forming a square. Contour lines drawn along the map indicate that the destination is located at a high elevation, and empty space surrounds the 'X'. Straight lines have been drawn from the center, pointing east and west. From other markings on the map, you guess that the destination is somewhere nearby. Judging by your surrounding environment, you will find the treasure in this province.

I'm in the city of Shard. At Fayrin's Rest, the map says directly south. At the path to eidolon steeds (out the south gate) the map says directly north. In gryphons and horse clan the map says east or southeast.

What concerns me is "several dotted lines forming a square" I have no idea what that means. Destination at a high elevation and empty space surrounds the X also concerns me.

It seems I am looking for a room with only east and west exits? I've tried the Great Tower, Brickwell Tower, Stormwill Tower, and the Tower of Honor. There are very few rooms that have east/west exits. What am I missing?

IIRC, the dotted lines forming a square is just a generic marking for a room with no specific type and the empty space around it indicates it has no special environment. I.e. it's not a forest, cave, city, mountain, etc. It's just the map maker's way of representing a basic room with no features.

High elevation just means it's not near sea level so you're wanting to look inland more than near a coastline. This is not that useful of a stat to know, although it can help narrow down general locations sometimes.

The above helps with searching sometimes, so you can narrow down what zone you need to look in.
