Unlock the Secrets: Completing 'For Whom the Bell Tolls' in KCD2

Completing "For Whom the Bell Tolls" in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: A Step-by-Step Guide

This main quest, following "Wedding Crashers," requires rescuing Hans from execution in Trosky Castle. Here's how to navigate this time-sensitive mission:

Transporting Supplies

Begin by moving sacks from a wagon to a nearby shed. This is a mandatory task; repeat until complete.

Assisting the Blacksmith

Next, aid the blacksmith by crafting a horseshoe using materials found at the forge. Deliver the finished horseshoe to the stables.

Aiding the Cook

Retrieve a lockpick from a red pot in the forge. Speak with Fanka, the cook, and offer assistance to gain kitchen access. While lockpicking isn't required, it boosts reputation and provides future food access.

Interacting with the Chamberlain

The ailing chamberlain requires medical attention. Attempt to persuade him to allow you to brew a Digestive Potion. Success grants access to the surgeon's workshop; failure necessitates stealth.

Preparing the Remedy

If you failed to convince the chamberlain, acquire food from the kitchen to distract a guard and sneak into the workshop. Otherwise, proceed directly. In the surgeon's workshop, craft a Fever Tonicum, and optionally a Digestive Potion if you persuaded the chamberlain. Sufficient ingredients are available.

Treating Thomas

Deliver the Digestive Potion to the chamberlain (if applicable) to gain access to Thomas. Alternatively, if sneaking, use a different route via the noble's kitchen stairs, distracting a guard with a pebble if necessary, to reach Thomas' room. Administer the Fever Tonicum to Thomas via Adele, triggering a cutscene that concludes the quest.

Successfully treating Thomas before the twelfth bell tolls increases reputation, though the quest outcome remains the same regardless.
