|
Use the information regarding hidden treasure in elven ruins, and locate any you may have unearthed during previous adventures. A particularly helpful clue and piece of witcher gear can be found in Est Tayiar—an elven ruin in northeast Gustfields. Est Tayiar is also the hideout for Phillipa Eilhart. Descend down the slit of earth at the entrance, then use Aard to break a loose wall to the southeast. Inside is a small antechamber with a corpse to loot. Don’t forget the diagram, too!
| ITEM: Quest Item: Professor Sigismund Gloger’s Notes, Witcher Gear: Diagram: Feline Silver Sword (1 of 7) |
Read the notes the professor left. They mention excavations to find the legendary treasure of King Maeglor of Est Tayiar. Gloger makes mention of a witcher named Kiyan he is worried about, and references Castle Drahim. The witcher apparently murdered one of his men, and left poor Gloger to die in here. Your next stop is Drahim Castle, it seems.
Journey almost due west, to the territory known as Grassy Knoll, just south of Novigrad and Farcorners. Find the small castle perched on a hill, watch for bandits, and look at a blood trail leading to the cellar. It has an unnaturally pale and cracked corpse at the bottom. This isn’t part of your quest (Contract: The White Lady (page 299) starts if you check the corpse), so investigate the castle’s tower instead. There’s a witcher symbol daubed on the large rock outside, and a front door to burst open using Aard.
