Keeping the Old Traditions Location

In order to get here as quickly as possible you should fast travel to Jirandai first and then head North-East.

Keeping the Old Traditions Solution
When you start this quest, you’ll probably be caught by surprise as instead of asking you to slay monsters, the quest will present you with a riddle, which reads: “though timeworn, you endure. Before your colourful kin, I say: Yes, I keep out traditions!”
If you are hearing this out of context for the first time then it’ll definitely be confusing for you at first, however if you then head on over to the next location in your quest log you’ll be able to find the answer relatively fast. To get to the next highlighted location you’ll need to fight your way through some monsters until you come across an ancient statue.
When you finally manage to get to this ancient statue, you’ll want to open your action wheel because you need to use the “yes” emote, which isn’t equipped by default. So, in order to equip this emote you’ll need to press the “customise” button once the wheel is open and then assign the “yes” emote to one of the segments. Then when you finally have this emote equipped onto your wheel you’’ simply have to perform the emote in front of the ancient statue and then a treasure chest will spawn close to you.
And that is it, you’ve completed the Keeping the Old Traditions quest, and have received some new treasure as a reward for your hard work.
