The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt The Complete Edition eGuide Quest Walkthrough: Act I (Novigrad) Secondary Quest: Now or Never

Under the Kingfisher's Nest

Objectives:

  • Follow Triss.
  • (Optional) Kill the witch hunters or Eternal Fire guardsmen.
  • Follow Triss.

Follow Triss up the stone steps, and then in the general direction of the Kingfisher Inn. Along the way, Triss may spot a patrol—usually witch hunters or temple guards numbering three or four. You can:

  • Hide at the corner of a building, waiting for the patrol to pass, before continuing.
  • Or face questioning if spotted, and combat afterward.

As you near your objective, she speaks about how times have changed for mages, then heads roughly west, through an arch and around a low stone wall to the side entrance of the red-bricked façade of the Kingfisher Inn. Once inside, prepare for one of the following:

If you rescued Anisse and Berthold, repel three witch hunters who have already discovered a group of mages inside. Do not rest until they are slain. You stoop over the corpse of Olivier—you were too late to save him. Speak with Triss, answering with compassion (or not), then follow her.

If you ignored Anisse and Berthold, step into the inn, and you’re greeted by Olivier. You speak with him, and are quickly lead downstairs after Triss. Follow her.

A secret wall slides open. You descend into a reasonably spacious brick cellar full of robed folks, some huddled and others standing. Listen to them if you wish.
