"Guide to Completing For Whom the Bell Tolls in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2"

Main quests can indeed be stressful, particularly when you're sneaking through unfamiliar territories under a time constraint. Here’s a detailed walkthrough on how to complete the quest "For Whom the Bell Tolls" in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*.

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

The quest "For Whom the Bell Tolls" begins immediately after completing "Wedding Crashers." Now imprisoned in Trosky, Hans faces execution once the bell tolls 12 times. Fortunately, Henry is assigned to labor around the castle instead of remaining in prison, providing him a crucial window to save Hans.

Hauling Sacks

Your first task is to haul sacks to a shed. This is not an optional objective. Grab a sack from the wagon and carry it to the shed beside the fenced area. Drop the sack inside, then repeat the process until the objective is complete.

Help the Blacksmith

Next, assist the blacksmith, who reluctantly assigns you the task of crafting a horseshoe. Enter the forge area through the archway opposite the blacksmith. Gather the necessary materials from the forge and create the horseshoe. Once approved by the blacksmith, follow the path you used for hauling sacks to the stables and deliver the horseshoe.

Help Fanka the Cook

After delivering the horseshoe, shift your focus to saving Hans. Return to the forge and retrieve a lockpick from the red pot on the shelves. Approach the woman nearby, Fanka, who works as a cook in the noble's kitchen. By offering to help her, you gain access to the kitchen.

Follow Fanka to the kitchen. While lockpicking isn't necessary, doing so boosts your reputation and earns you Fanka's favor for future food requests, which could prove useful.

Speak with the Chamberlain

Upon entering the kitchen, you'll notice the chamberlain suffering. Engage in conversation with him and attempt to persuade him to allow you to brew a Digestive Potion. Success grants you access to the surgeon's workshop; otherwise, you must sneak in.

Make Fever Tonicum

If you failed to convince the chamberlain, grab food from the kitchen to distract the guard in the non-noble kitchen. If you succeeded, proceed directly to the surgeon's workshop via the stairs opposite the forge. Ascend to the hall with two doors; enter the right door to access the workshop. Craft the Fever Tonicum and, if applicable, the Digestive Potion using the ingredients found in the room's chest.

Cure Thomas

If you're aiding the chamberlain, return with the Digestive Potion to secure permission to treat Thomas. If sneaking, proceed cautiously. Return to the noble's kitchen and ascend the stairs to avoid guards. Stay crouched and use a pebble to distract the guard at the base of the staircase leading to Thomas' room. Sneak past him and proceed to Thomas' room, where you'll find him bedridden and his sister, Adele, attending to him. Hand over the Fever Tonicum to Adele, triggering the quest-ending cutscene.

Completing "For Whom the Bell Tolls" in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* before the 12th bell tolls enhances your reputation, though the quest's outcome remains consistent regardless of timing.
