Castlewood
Point 1
Chapter begins from conversation with servant Shorei in Alester's bedroom. She tells you that Marianne Harlton is waiting for you in the cellar. Weird...
Before you go talk with Marianne, you can search the mansion and even make a small shopping on the courtyard.
Point 2
Marianne will try to convince you that she agrees with you about her uncle's actions. Don't be fooled.
During conversation with Marianne, suddenly a stranger appears, putting a knife under her throat. It's your real brother, Gawen, who has been hold by Harlton in the dungeon for all months. It's also the mysterious co-prisoner of Mors.
During the nervous dialogue you'll have to choose side of Gawen or Marianne. Girl will betray you anyway, and you will fight all guards in the castle. Gwen will help you neutralize the lord's niece and quietly run from the castle.
Point 3
Gawen has a Castlewood guard armor what won't alarm the rest of guards. But you need two things first, beginning with salve for Gawen's wounds. Visit Maester Martin and ask for medicament for your arm.
Return to Gawen, give him a medicine and go for the other crucial thing.
Point 4
...which is a full helmet. You'll find it in the chamber of castle guard, on the chair by the fireplace. Listen carefully to the guards talking.
Return to your brother, who can complete his disguise. He'll join your team (but you can't control him) and you can freely move in the castle.
In the same time you get a secondary quest A Maggot in the Apple, which is described at the end of this chapter. I recommend to do it at once, what makes going through the castle much easier.
Point 5
When you complete the secondary quest try to enter dungeon. The door are shut. Meet with Shorei in the dining room and convince her to poison guards who have keys to dungeon.
Alternatively, you can talk with Alesander (keys owner) and convince him that Shorei is waiting in dungeon, take him there and kill.
Visit again Maester Martin. To not provoke any suspicions ask about his job and medicals, which, perhaps, can be lethal. You received vial with Ointments.
Give the vial to Shorei and she'll quickly deal with guards. Pick up loots and keys to the dungeon.
Point 6
On stairs leading to dungeon you meet three guards. Nothing will convince them to let you in, so kick their butts as on the screen above.
