Quest

Lab testing company

Quest is a journey in pursuit of something—originally a knight's search for a sacred object or noble goal, now any determined pursuit: a quest for knowledge, a quest for the perfect taco.

The word retains a sense of adventure and purpose beyond mere searching.

To quest is to go in search: questing for meaning.

In video games, quests are missions or tasks assigned to players.
