Main quests - part 1 | Chapter V | Walkthrough The Witcher Guide

Last update: 02 February 2017

The events of chapter V very much depend on your decisions from Q4.107. Free Elves.

Quest Q5.108. Sweet Revenge is activated once you enter the Dike.

If you decided to support Squirrels in their fight for freedom, you'll get a quest from Zoltan named Q5.109. Hope That Burns. If you decided to remain neutral, Zoltan will give you Q5.124. Under a Fiery Sky. And if you decided to support the Order, Zoltan won't be too talkative, and after a short conversation with him you'll get a quest Q5.126. The Fire that Cleanses.

Regardless of all the above, you'll embark on a quest for Foltest Q5.110. Her Highness the Striga, as well as Q4.95. Armor. Also, more phases of Qp.4. Witchers' Secrets will come to be.

Q5.109. Hope Burns Bright

This quest will be available if you supported the Squirrels in the previous chapter.

Talk to Zoltan. He asks you for help in rescuing the refugees. Head to Old Vizima.

You meet Zoltan again in Old Vizima (M33.2).

Phase 3. Another Group

One group of refugees is in one of the alleys (M33.9).

The second one is in the parallel alley (M33.17).

Phase 5. The Striga

When you enter the hospital (M33.5), a guard appears saying that the Striga appeared near the tower (M33.21) and keeps killing people.

Phase 6. To Shani

Kill the Mutant near the tower. He was mistaken for a Striga.

Phase 7. Defense

Follow Toruviel to the hideout (M33.7).

Phase 11. Talking to Toruviel

Phase 12. The Barricade

Leave the Scoia'tael hideout.

Flashback: You now realize that Toruviel came here because you helped her in chapter IV.

You have to break through the right flank, to the Order's field command post.

Phase 15. Flanking on the Left

Phase 16. Yaevinn's Plan

Just past the barricade you have to fight some more. Once you're done with that, Toruviel appears and proposes a frontal attack. Smash the next barricade (M33.24).

Phase 17. The Fight is Won

And after defeating even more troops...

Phase 18. The Refugees Safe

... you'll see a scene in which White Rayla dies and you all leave Old Vizima.
