Which is admittedly pretty par-for-the-course for Witchers.
But trust us, it goes next-level.
There are two ways to activate this quest.
Activate The Quest
Jacob will tell you that the large tree nearby is strangely bleeding.
Return to Jacob and tell him you’re willing to take on the quest.
You won’t be getting much money from him, but you are free to haggle if you desire.
From here, Jacob will tell you about a witch from Lynx Crag and a knight.
The Witch
Head northwest from this area to Lynx Crag.
On a high hill, you’ll find the witch’s hut.
Watch out for their poison.
You’ll find two books and a note.
Last,examine the bear pelt hanging inside.
Behind it is a magic symbol; interact with it.
Grab the Silk Kerchief, and the witch will show up.
When you talk to the witch, you’ll find you have three options for lifting the curse.
She is a powerful foe who summons a level 40 panther, giving you two opponents at once.
Return to the tree and Jacob, just to find that he’s missing.
If you successfully defeat her, talk to Jacob for your reward.
He won’t be happy, though.
when you’ve got it, return to the tree and talk to Jacob.
He’ll agree to help with the ritual, and you’ll need to light four fires.
