You’ve uncovered the truth about what the Royal Envoy has been up to in the Lost Legacies event, and it’s time to confront her about her actions in The Sims 4. To do so, you have to catch her before she flees, so you need to surprise her.
This mission is quite tough to work through, as the Royal Envoy is attempting to make a quick and sneaky getaway. Finding her at this point is rather tricky, so if you’re stuck on this quest, here’s how to surprise the Royal Envoy in The Sims 4.

Where to find the Royal Envoy to surprise her in The Sims 4
When the Royal Envoy is plotting to make her grand escape, she can be found near the lake area behind the row of community lots in the Crawdad Quarter neighborhood in Willow Creek. The spot she can be found at is right next to the Municipal Muses Museum and the Blue Velvet Nightclub. It’s an interactive area with some picnic tables, grills, and fishing spots.
The easiest way to access this area is to travel to the Blue Velvet Nightclub, then walk down the stone path between this lot and the Municipal Muses Museum. When you reach the end of the stone path, move on to the grassy area, then make a slight right to cross over to the dirt so you end up at the picnic area next to the lake.
For this mission, the Royal Envoy doesn’t spawn at an actual lot. Instead, she wanders around an outside area in the neighborhood. This makes pinpointing her location rather tough, as the neighborhood is fairly large and you’re not given much guidance for where to look.
Once you complete the mission right before this one, which asks you to talk to the mixologist at the Blue Velvet Nightclub, the Royal Envoy will then spawn nearby. She’s not there before this point, and it takes her a bit to get over to the lake, so let the game play for a while before you start searching for her.
Surprise the Royal Envoy in The Sims 4
To surprise the Royal Envoy, click on her and select the “Surprise!” option once she’s hanging out near the lake. For me, she started fishing once she arrived in the area, so it took a bit to get her to respond, but she may not always be.
This option will only be available once she’s by the lake, since this is part of the Lost Legacies event story. At this point, she’s attempting to flee, so surprising her to let her know you’ve learned of her schemes is the only way to stop her.
After you surprise her, you’re then faced with the final event mission, which is deciding whether you should forgive the Royal Envoy or not. After that, you’re done with the entire Lost Legacies event, which means you can move on to other tasks, like pulling the sword from the stone, exploring Ondarion, and finding the Blacksmith.
