Qp.4. Witchers’ Secrets (continued)
Phase 13. Return to Vizima
When battle between Scoia’tael and the Order commences in phase 3 of Q4.107. Free Elves, it will be the right time to go back to Vizima.
Quest will be continued in chapter V.
Q4.90. Ripples
Phase 1. Another Witcher
Ask the Vodyanoi Priest (M26.2) if he has any job for a witcher. He’ll tell you to go see the Lady of the Lake – if you kneel before her statue, he will give you a quest.
Phase 2. Factional Leaders
Talk to Berengar (M26.19) after you meet him inside the crypt (M26.17). This quest can be done in three different ways – we’ll guide you through all of them.
Phase 3. The Cow
Now go see the Priest again (M26.2) – if he’s not by the altar, kill all the hostile vodyanoi there (near the cave, (M26.12)). Tell the Priest that you got the contract back from Berengar and you will bring the Prize-Winning Cow to the altar.
Phase 4. Julian
Go to see Julian (M30.6) and tell him that you got the contract from Berengar. Agree to kill the Dagon Acolyte at the altar.
Phase 5. A Gift for the Lady
When you go to Black Tern Island, you’ll be able to talk to the Lady of the Lake (M31.2). Ask her if you can do anything for her. She asks you to solve the conflict between humans and the vodyanoi – you are to bring her gifts from both groups as a proof of their good will.
Phase 6. To the Island
Go where the cow is (M30.23) and give her some dried fruits and nuts. It will start following you. Take it to the Altar of Dagon (M31.9).
Phase 7. An Alabaster Figurine
Go to see Julian (M30.6) and tell him that it is possible to make peace with the vodyanoi, then ask him for an alabaster figurine.
Phase 8. A Gold Bracelet
Go to see Vodyanoi Priest (M26.2) and tell him that the Lady of the Lake wants to help them solve the problem, then take the Golden Bracelet from him.
Phase 9. Ruby
Go see the Lady again (M31.2) and ask her if these are the gifts she wanted. You’ll get a Ruby.
Go to Altar of Dagon (M31.9). If you completed all of the above phases, you will have three options now: kill the cow (a favor for vodyanoi), kill the acolyte (a favor for humans), or place the Lady’s ruby on the altar (solving the conflict). Of course, if you are confident that you want to support one side, you don’t have to complete all the phases – only the ones leading to the desired solution. If you lure Dagon for a battle here, be sure to complete all the side-quests in this area – you won’t be able to do much after the fight.
Regardless of your choice (proclaiming peace seems to be the best choice, obviously), Dagon appears and you have to fight him.
Phase 10. Dagon Eradicated
The Bestiary tells you that Dagon is a god and cannot be killed that easily. Take care of his followers when he summons them. When you kill about 10 of them, Dagon will fall. Loot his body for a Sun Rune and some ooze.
Phase 11. Reward
If you lured Dagon by killing the cow, go to get your reward from the priest (M26.2). If you killed the acolyte, go to Julian (M30.6). And if you places the ruby on the altar, go back to the Lady (M31.2). the Priest will give you a Ceremonial Sword of Deithwen, Julian gives you a Grand Diamond, and the Lady will bring back a piece of your memory...
The above events end this quest in the journal, but if you haven’t used the Ruby to lure Dagon, you have to go back to his altar (M31.9) and talk to the Lady, who’ll be waiting for you there. She’ll give you a gift: an excellent silver sword Aerondight.
