Trail of the Craven

The gate is locked, so follow Yennefer up the steps. Travel across the ivy-covered stone bridges connecting various parts of the garden together, then head northwest, into the very middle of the garden to a huge and sacred tree. You pick up the trail of Craven immediately (he cut himself to make a blood offering). Afterwards, you explain to Yennefer that hunting a werewolf is best done alone (she agrees and waits at the tree).

• Before you head off, feel free to speak to Yennefer again to learn more about the garden’s history, and engage in some playful banter.

Utilize your Witcher Senses at the tree, and begin to follow a variety of clues:

• Craven’s blood by the tree, flowing profusely with a clear trail.
• A crack between the tree root in the ground. Something is below, but you can’t tell what.
• A trail of blood and footprints (he trod carefully) leads you down into the lower gardens. Turn right (west) and engage a wolf in combat.
• A corpse, half-hidden in shrubbery. Morkvarg doesn’t eat his victims.
• Monster tracks by the main gate; there was running and chasing. Expect two more wolves prowling the area as you continue in a clockwise search.
• A number of footprints showing where Morkvarg finally attacked. Craven’s blood is here.
• More splatters of blood. Craven ran away wounded, after blocking the werewolf as he tried to escape. The trail ends at a door that is firmly closed. You need to head around it.
