The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt eGuide Secondary Quests Secondary Quests: Novigrad: Gustfields (7)

Empty Coop

Locations: Yanina’s Cottage, Dancing Windmill

Characters: Yanina, Petey

Enemies: None

An Angry Old Coot and a Two-Legged Wolf

Objectives:
  • Find out what’s been stealing the old woman’s chickens.
  • Nearest Signposts: Dancing Windmill, Honeyfill Meadworks.

Seek out a lone cottage amid the fields just west of the Dancing Windmill, and you’ll come across a wailing woman, furious that her hens have been taken, one at a time, by a wolf that seems to walk on its hindlegs. Agree to find and slay this dangerous monster.

Locate the wolf prints nearby. Then travel roughly southward, toward a pond, and there are small footprints near to the tracks, but no sign of a struggle. Wade across the pond, and look for a small tent, with three children sitting around a campfire. You speak to their leader, and chief chicken-catcher (Petey) about the tracks (which they made), and listen to a poignant story about their predicament.

Objective:
  • Convince the old woman to take in the children.

Leave the urchins and return to Yanina’s cottage, and speak to her again. After letting her know about the children, mention they could live with her, and her tone softens. She’ll think about your offer. This quest concludes.
