The key can be found at the Navatia Ruins, but securing it isn’t a walk in the park:

1. Travel to the Assembly Area triport in Ozhorn Hill
2. Head south east to reach the Navatia Ruins (see image below)
3. You will see a whole collection of Mimics bouncing around the area; defeat them
   • Mimics are fearsome treasure chests with some particularly nasty teeth and a bad attitude
4. One of the Mimics will drop the Key Swallowed by Mimic when defeated; but this is all based on chance
