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 stealth and time constraints are involved. The quest "For Whom the Bell Tolls" is a prime example. Here's a complete walkthrough to guide you through this challenging mission.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2: For Whom the Bell Tolls Walkthrough

"For Whom the Bell Tolls" begins immediately after completing "Wedding Crashers." Hans, imprisoned in Trosky, faces execution once the bell tolls twelve times. Your task, as Henry, is to use your forced labor detail to save him.

Hauling Sacks

Begin by hauling sacks from a wagon to a nearby shed. This is a non-negotiable objective. Simply grab a sack, carry it to the shed, drop it, and repeat until finished.

Helping the Blacksmith

Next, assist the blacksmith by crafting a horseshoe. The forge is located across from the archway. Gather the necessary materials, craft the horseshoe, and deliver it to the stables.

Helping 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. This will grant you access to the noble's kitchen. While lockpicking isn't strictly required, it boosts your reputation and allows you to obtain food later.

Speaking with the Chamberlain

The ailing chamberlain is located in the kitchen. Attempt to convince him to let you brew a Digestive Potion. Success grants access to the surgeon's workshop; otherwise, you'll need to sneak in.

Making Fever Tonicum

If you failed to convince the chamberlain, acquire food from the kitchen to distract the guard and sneak into the workshop. Otherwise, proceed directly to the surgeon's workshop (located up the stairs across from the forge). Craft the Fever Tonicum, and a Digestive Potion if you persuaded the chamberlain. Sufficient ingredients are available in the workshop chest.

Curing Thomas

If you helped the chamberlain, return with the Digestive Potion to gain access to Thomas' room. If sneaking, navigate to Thomas' room via the noble's kitchen stairs, using stealth 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.
