Starting the Corneo’s Secret Stash Quest

There are two possible locations to start the quest depending on how you’ve played through Chapter 14.

Location 1: If you haven’t started the quest yet, it can be picked up in this northern section of the Sector 5 slums shown here. The reporter Damon will track you down and present his offer. From here, talk to Johnny at the Train Station to start the Tomboy Bandit quest.

Location 2: If you’ve already spoken with Johnny at the Train Station and kicked off the Tomboy Bandit quest, you’ll see Damon standing outside the church, here on the corner before entering the main building.

Once you’ve found Damon and spoken to Johnny, enter the church for a quick rendezvous with Kyrie. She’ll send you to the Colosseum in Wall Market marked below.

Approach the owner there and ask for a Special Match. Defeat the opponents, go back to the Church and Kyrie will give you access to the key to Corneo’s Secret Stashes. She’ll also give you Johnny’s Wallet too, so return that to him.

Corneo Secret Stash Locations

Key in hand, now you can start looking for the stashes. Here are the locations you need.

Location 1: The first one is here, at Steel Mountain. Go inside, break all the boxes and make sure you open the canister with the Ruby Tiara inside.

Location 2: The second stash is here, right at the Collapsed Expressway Entrance Chocobo spawn. Go in, and make sure you open the canister containing the Diamond Tiara.

Location 3: This last one is probably the main reason you’re here. For the final stash you need to finish the Chapter 14 story mission with Leslie in the sewers. In fact during the mission you may see the entrance to the stash and notice it’s blocked in by water.

Beyond the boss you’ll get to this moment where Leslie goes up the ladder. Don’t do that yet. Instead, hit this switch to the right.

With the water now drained, you can backtrack to the location shown above and grab the stash with the Emerald Tiara after defeating the mini-boss behind the gate. After that, the Corneo’s Secret Stash quest is officially done.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake is available now on PS4.
