Quest Text

A short distance from Castel Ravello, Geralt happened on a notice posted by Jacob, a lumberjack. The logger was in search of someone who had no fear of spells and could thus face a witch. This was the very description of the witcher, no two ways about it, so it was no surprise that our hero took an interest in the notice and decided to visit Jacob.

Starting NPC

Name: Notice Board – Castel Ravello Vineyard

Additional Info

Pick up the quest from the notice board in Castel Ravello Vineyard, then talk to Jacob the woodcutter.

Walkthrough

Following contains quest spoilers. You’ve been warned

Talk to Jacob the woodcutter

Go to the loggers camp west of Castel Ravello and talk to Jacob. He’ll tell you about the woman-turned-tree he wants you to free. You’ll have to find the witch of Lynx Crag first.

Search the hut using your Witcher Senses

When you reach the witch’s hut, you’ll have to investigate it. The bear skin on the wall is the only important part. Lift it and take the kerchief. The witch will appear and talk to you. You can choose to demand her help or solve the problem yourself.
Choice 1

Can lift the curse myself

If you choose to lift the curse yourself, you’ll return to Jacob, perform a ritual badly and fight Daphne’s raging spirit.

Treat her like you would any other wraith – use specter oil and Yrden. Once it’s done, Jacob will reluctantly pay you and you’ll leave feeling sour.
Choice 2

Lift the curse, or else

If you choose to force the witch to help you, you’ll need to defeat her in combat. Roll around and avoid her lynx companion, focusing on the witch herself.

Once you’re back at the logging camp, you’ll discover Jacob dead, murdered by his wolf Morholt, who was possessed by the tree spirit.

You can loot his coin purse if you feel like you’ve deserved a reward.
