The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt eGuide Witcher Contracts Contract: The Apiarian Phantom

The Chill of the Chase

Objectives:

  • Open the basement.
  • Chase down and kill the fleeing beast.
  • Defeat the hound of the Wild Hunt.

The doors can now be opened, and you enter an earthen cellar filled with icicles. The reason becomes obvious as a hound of the Wild Hunt quickly bounds past you! Race up the steps, whistling for Roach, and gallop after this icy hound—chasing it down on horseback and whacking it with your silver sword before dismounting and fighting it to the death while on foot.

End: A Short Interlude

Objectives:

  • Take a trophy from the hound of the Wild Hunt.
  • Collect your reward from Holofernes Meiersdorf.

When you’ve felled the spiny beast, slit it open to gather some items including a trophy to affix to Roach. Ride back into the Honeyfill estate. The family is waiting for you close to the house, by the signpost marker. The Meiersdorf family are more than generous with a reward for your job well done. Then the quest concludes.

ITEM: Lesser Red Mutagen, Wild Hunt Hound Trophy, Jar of Honey, Crowns
