This guide is a walkthrough of a side quest in the Witcher 3 on the Skellige Isles. The guide is composed of a map, map legend, and walkthrough to show readers exactly where to go and what to do to complete the quest.

1 – Cave

Background

You’ll receive this quest from a troubadour in a cave in eastern Ard Skellig (#1).

Walkthrough

The troubadour will beg you to be quiet, or else you’ll wake his “beloved,” who apparently is sleeping somewhere deeper in the cave. As you continue exploring, you’ll eventually run into the beloved — a level 15 water hag. When you approach her, she’ll ask you for a rhyme, but no matter what you say, she’ll attack you. You’ll earn 25 xp for defeating the hag, but when you return to the troubadour, he’ll be gone.
