Step 1: Go to King Foltest

You will wake up with a naked Triss beside you. Unfortunately when only Geralt starts the fun, a guard will come and summon you on behalf of King Foltest. Before moving out you will be able to talk with Triss about the stupidity of wars. She will also mention the dream, that is the Returning Memories side quest, which won't activate in the journal.

Notice! After leaving the tent you can immediately go to Foltest (M1, 1) or take a look around the camp first. Nearby you will find Newboy (M1, 2), standing beside a group of friends. They will give you the Melitele's Heart quest - remember that you won't return to this location and won't be able to approach this mission again.

Step 2: Follow Foltest

You have to aid the king in eliminating one of the traitors. You mission is to set the amount by which the ballista's altitude should be corrected (M1, 3). The proper value is 1.5 degree. The proper way of aiming with the telescope can be seen on the upper screen - the middle horizontal line (marked II) should be at the height of the character with a plume. If you won't be able to properly aim and the missile will miss its target, nothing will happen and it won't influence the story.

Eventually you will end up inside the siege tower - follow Foltest to its top, while going up the ladders and hearing out what the king has to say about Luisa. You can also listen to the singing soldiers. After getting to the top, right before the beginning of the attack, the game will move back to the castle.
