Being Fair To Salma Lilith: Confronting A Succubus

Step out of Crippled Kate’s, and head south following the trail of perfume visible to your Witcher Senses. Follow the scent along the winding streets until you discover a well-to-do townsman in a state of distress, leaning against a building. He indicates he’s been inside the house, but appears to have been charmed… by a succubus!

This devilish creature is hiding out inside the wattle and daub structure, and getting in can be a challenge. Enter via the door on the eastern side (ground level), just to the south of where the befuddled man is. Climb the stairs to a small landing, pass a resting townsman, and climb the interior ladder to the roof eaves. Exit via the open doorway to a rickety wooden platform attached to the adjacent building. At the end is an exterior wooden ladder to clamber up. It leads into an attic space. Drop through the hole in the floor to reach a move lavish bedchamber, with velvet curtains and trays of grapes. This must be the boudoir of the succubus you seek.

Head down the stairs, and gain an audience with Salma Lilith. Beware of her disarming ways as you speak to her. You can:

• Insist on killing her. This begins combat with the succubus in a very confined space.
• Agree that she must leave the city. She’s understanding but angry, but plays along and hands over a trophy to you, as well as an impressive sword for your collection. Then you part ways.

End: Not Much Fuss for a Succubus

With the succubus placated, return to the guard that requested your help, back at the canal bridge. You explain the fate of the dead guards, and are rewarded for your masterful work. Gather your crowns as the quest concludes.
