This quest immediately follows Storm and will require you recount some of the events to Lord Piskek. Read on to find out the best dialogue choices and how to defeat Pullock in a friendly duel.

You’ll arrive at Suchadol after barely escaping Lord Von Bergow’s grasp and the first thing on your agenda is to get some food, so follow Zizka and "Katherine" iconKatherine up to the Banquet Table. After some chatter, head up the stairs to find your room and then use this opportunity to save your game and sleep.

Find Zizka

Once you’ve finally awoken from a much needed rest, you’ll want to look for Zizka who can be found sitting next to a fire in the northwest corner of the courtyard, but before you do, we recommend paying Katherine a visit (who can be found near the sword fighting arena) and agreeing to duel Pullock. If you beat him which can easily be done by waiting for him to strike you first, parrying and countering, then you’ll be rewarded with a Decorated Field Crossbow.

Now finally speak with Zizka and then return to the Banquet Hall for an audience with Lord Piskek. You’ll need to bring up to speed on the events that have happened over the last few days and there isn’t any incorrect answers to be found here, but we went with the following options to be safe.

  • Von Bergow Betrayed Us!
  • It was difficult with Zizka
  • Sokol of Lamberg
  • How come you don’t know
  • I understand it’s complicated
  • Instead of messengers, they thought we were beggars.
  • It weighed heavily on him
  • Istvan Toth was at Trosky
  • Isn’t Zizka the same as Toth?
  • I betrayed Liechtenstein

The conclusion of this conversation will bring the quest to a close and ["Speak of the Devil" iconSpeak of the Devil] will become available. If you wish to travel back to Trosky to finish up any tasks, then you can do so by visiting a Coachman.
