The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt The Complete Edition eGuide Episode 1: Main Quests: Hearts Of Stone Open Sesame (Part 2)

End Part 4: Roll Out The Barrel

Objectives

  • Find the secret way out of the vault using your Witcher Senses, OR
  • Get out of the auction house.

If you’re on your own, locate the large vault pillar to the left of the pedestal Borsodi’s House was sitting on, and press it. This opens the secret door to the south.

Items: Diagram: Ofieri Crossbow, Diagram: Viper Venomous Steel Sword

Dash through the escape tunnel, use the lever to open the secret wall and step into a fisherman’s hut close to the Pontar.

If Ewald is with you, you have a final conversation, and he offers to provide items to you at cut-price rates from the Auction House in the future.

If Casimir is with you, there’s a last chat before he bids you a fond farewell.

Objectives

  • Take Maximilian Borsodi’s House to Olgierd.

Return to Oxenfurt, enter the Alchemy Inn, and speak with Olgierd regarding the evening’s slaughter. This can be done whether or not you finish Main Quest: Dead Man’s Party.

Mention you have the Borsodi’s House, and Olgierd beckons you to a quieter location. You can ask why he required the papers within the House, ask more about the Borsodi brothers (Olgierd is happiest if you killed them both), and why he has a gripe with them. What follows is a tale of woe and debt, but mainly debt.

You can also quiz him about the company he keeps, his saber, the Ofieri “toad” prince, or play Gwent.

  • If only Main Quest: Open Sesame has been completed, you must finish Main Quest: Dead Man’s Party.
  • If both Main Quests: Dead Man’s Party and Open Sesame have been completed, mention the third task. Olgierd’s Wild Ones free a man from a barrel. Olgierd requests your presence outside, and asks if you’ve ever truly loved. Answer as you wish. You can:
  • Refuse to drink, and not discover much about the forthcoming task.
  • Agree to drink, and more old wounds are picked apart.

When it comes time, Olgierd tells you he had a wife once. The day he saw her last, he gave her a violet rose. You’re to bring him that bloom. This quest now concludes, and Main Quest: Scenes from a Marriage begins.
