Surprise Meeting

Follow our expert guide to complete the Surprise Meeting side quest in Hogwarts Legacy. Learn how to start the quest and what to do to progress Poppy's storyline.

Alright, so you've finished up 'A Poacher's House Call' and you're wondering how to get back to helping Poppy? You'll need to have completed two more quests first: 'It’s All Gobbledegook' and 'In The Shadow of The Mine'. Once those are done, keep an eye on your owl mail – Poppy should send you a message asking to meet up in the Forbidden Forest.

Head over to the Forbidden Forest and meet Poppy. You'll have a chat with some Centaurs there, and it's during this conversation that you'll get the attention of Dorran. He'll give Poppy the crucial clues she needs to figure out where the Snidget is hidden. After you wrap up this conversation, the quest will wrap up too. Don't worry about a marker popping up; just head out of the area and use your map to advance time to the start of 'The Centaur and the Stone'.
