The Underground
The Underground is a shop in Palia accessible at night from 6:00 PM to 3:00 AM. It's run by the villager
Zeki, and features a static register shop, a rotating selection of furniture and decor not craftable in each set in Furniture Making, access to The Tower, and Zeki's Wondrous Machine. Players can play the Hotpot Minigame and access Zeki's Prize Wheel here as well!
Zeki has decided to allow certain Trading in The Underground! Just get his permission, by completing the
Trading Tips quest and earning his Trading Pass, so the trading booths will be available for use.
Location
This shop has three entrances: one is in the basement of Zeki's General Store hidden behind a bookshelf, and the other is along Kilima Valley's southern shore beneath the Remembrance Garden, disguised as an entrance to the sewers. A third entrance can be found in Reth's Storeroom located in the basement in Ormuu's Horn Inn.
Once you complete the associated
Wares in Low Places quest, Zeki will give you a key which unlocks the entrance from his store.
