How to Complete For Whom the Bell Tolls in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

Navigating the main quests in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* can be tricky, especially when you're racing against the clock and navigating unfamiliar territory. This walkthrough details how to complete the stressful "For Whom the Bell Tolls" quest.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: For Whom the Bell Tolls Walkthrough

The "For Whom the Bell Tolls" quest begins after completing "Wedding Crashers." Hans is imprisoned in Trosky and faces execution once the bell tolls twelve times. Your task is to use your temporary freedom as a laborer to save him.

Hauling Sacks

Begin by hauling sacks from a wagon to a nearby shed. This is non-negotiable; simply repeat the process until the objective is complete.

Help the Blacksmith

Next, assist the blacksmith by crafting a horseshoe. Find the forge across from the archway, gather the necessary materials, and create the horseshoe. Deliver the finished product to the stables.

Help Fanka the Cook

Retrieve a lockpick from a red pot on the shelves near the forge. Speak with Fanka, the cook, and offer your assistance to gain access to the noble's kitchen. While lockpicking isn't strictly required, it boosts your reputation and allows future access to food.

Speak with the Chamberlain

In the kitchen, speak with the ailing chamberlain. Attempt to persuade him to let you brew a Digestive Potion. Success grants access to the surgeon's workshop; otherwise, you'll need to sneak in.

Make Fever Tonicum

If you didn't convince the chamberlain, acquire food from the kitchen to distract a guard and sneak into the workshop. Otherwise, proceed directly. Access the surgeon's workshop (located up the stairs from the forge) and craft the Fever Tonicum, and a Digestive Potion if you persuaded the chamberlain. Sufficient ingredients are available in the room's chest.

Cure Thomas

If you helped the chamberlain, return with the Digestive Potion to gain access to Thomas' room. Otherwise, stealthily navigate to Thomas's room via the noble's kitchen staircase, using distractions as needed to avoid guards. Give Adele the Fever Tonicum to trigger the cutscene concluding the quest.

Completing "For Whom the Bell Tolls" before the twelfth bell tolls increases your reputation, but a successful outcome is guaranteed regardless of timing.
