Remember, you only need to find one artifact from each area, but let’s get into the locations of all of them, so you’re aware. First, there’s one located on the western side in the center, on the bottom floor of one of the ruins. It spawns by a chest.

Second artifact

And the final one in this area is to the east on a sandy hill.

Once you’ve found one artifact from Coral Castle and one from Stealthy Stronghold, you’ll complete the challenge and earn 24,000 XP for doing so.

However, this wasn't the case with the Festival and Lego passes for Fortnite Festival and Lego Fortnite, respectively. That's changing after the current seasons and passes end later this year.
