I don't want to look at the location/picture cause I don't want to have it spoiled. Could you perhaps give a small vague hint? Maybe tell us what notes or signs in the game that relate to the relic so we can figure it out on our own?

Load up your party and try beating the game a few more times, you'll probably get it. Oh, and be ready to do some light code-cracking.

And those of you who want the real spoilery goods:

The book in the "true" ending holds some code.

Your "light code-cracking" comment gave it away lol, realized it was the book after watching the ending again. Holy shit I love the guys who created this game, that is the most clever thing ever. Now to figure out what the book actually says...

It easy to crack code, because we have the names of pictures i.e. mount Grimrock and Isle of Hex)
