For those curious about what lies within, it’s just a bench and a speaker. There’s no manager, object, or anything else of significance, as it serves as a means to reach Act 3. Consequently, the ancient diving bell and its decorative clamp can be disregarded safely, as Hornet won’t miss out on much, and you’ll still make your way there if you receive the quest to do so.

How To Get The Diving Bell Key In Silksong

The aged key used for diving, known as the Diving Bell Key, is handed out by a friendly laborer named Ballow, who works near the Forge Daughter in Deep Docks. After discussing the matter of descending beneath Deep Docks with the Forge Daughter, she suggests that Hornet should instead approach Ballow. Go and talk to him directly, and he’ll mention that he will meet up with Hornet by the bell.

Go to the ancient diving capsule. If you’ve visited it before, take the shortcut; otherwise, opt for the longer route if it’s your first time. Once there, ascend the small room on the right and locate Ballow. He will lower the diving capsule, and after it is prepared, Hornet can unlock the elegant clasp to enter. Inside, find a seat on the bench and converse with Ballow to start the dive.
