Dumb as a Bag of Ogg, Pogg, and Roggs

Close by the troll are the remains of an old mining quarry. Approach and look around, until you spot the entrance close to some old wooden scaffold. Enter the cave, looting chests if you wish, until you reach the huge main cavern. You’re surprised and slightly amused to see your old friend Thaler.

Who better to teach Ogg and Pogg, the two nearby trolls, how to curse? Now to extricate him from his predicament. The trolls aren’t ready to let him leave. You can:

• Choose the first conversation choice (at either time), which is threatening, and fight Ogg and Pogg. Closely followed by Rogg.
• Choose the second conversation choice (both times), which allows you to leave with Thaler under the pretense of finding leather for their shoes.

End: Still Tart as Rotting Rhubarb

Learn more about how Thaler survived since the last time you saw him, as you reach his wagon. He’ll find his own way back to Novigrad, and is ready to set Dijkstra and Roche’s plans in motion. For now though, this quest concludes.
