The most Geralt can do isdamage controlby choosing the lesser evil.

Still, players will find themselves completing it quickly.

That’s because following the trail of treats laid out by the Crones is actually a visual treat.

He can make a deal with the Ghost in the Tree or the so-called Whispering Hillock.

It’sa sidequestthat branches off from the “Ladies of the Wood.”

It’s a tough call.
