The Ashes of Vizima

The Ashes of Vizima is a quest which is automatically received upon completion of Act V. It launches the Epilogue. At this point, regardless of the path Geralt has chosen, the course of events is very similar, only the absence or presence of certain key players whose lives have been impacted by Geralt's choices varies.

Walkthrough
Having just found out that the Grand Master of the Order of the Flaming Rose is behind Salamandra, the witcher and his ally (either Yaevinn, Siegfried or Triss) head back to Vizima to inform the King. Geralt's choice of path has already impacted the political landscape in Temeria and abroad and those consequences are apparent in his exchange with the monarch.

Politics aside, Geralt brings the King up to date on what he has found and the latter urges him to finish the job, for 8000 orens (10000 less an appropriate amount of income tax). The witcher then sets out, still aided by his ally, to find the Grand Master at the Cloister and finally retrieve the stolen Witchers' Secrets. Along the way he meets some of his former friends and allies, frightened refugees, mutant assassins, greater brothers and a zeugl.

The Cloister ... the final showdown with the Grand Master.

Hunting
The king promised me 8000 orens for killing the Grand Master. I must make my wat through Vizima to the Cloister. I'll find him (the Grand Master) there, and I'll slay him... ''I must break through Vizima to the Cloister. The Grand Master must die... ''

Dandelion
Dandelion is staying behind - to compose more of his absurd songs recounting current events. I must go one, hunt down the Grand Master in the Cloister. I must go on and hunt down the Grand Master in the Cloister.

The Greater Brothers
Siegfried claims the mutants were born of a project pursued by the Order, a project that was to yield warriors called Greater Brothers. It seems they went beyond transforming just a few knights...

An Invitation
I should follow this man. He may know a way through the building's cellar. ''The streets are too dangerous. I'll look for a passage through the cellars.''

The Key
Our host claims we can get to the next building through the cellar, bypassing a long segment of burning streets. I must search for the key, which supposedly is somewhere in the building. ''I must search for the key to the cellar. It's supposed to be somewhere in the building.''

The Way through the Cellar

Upstairs we met a man who has clearly had to endure too much... He claimed we can leave the building through the window. According to the man, we can leave the building through the window.

To the Cloister

The Believers
We're near the Cloister, but we can expect a savage fight before we face the Grand Master. We must break through to the Cloister gates.

The Cloister Gates
The guards lie defeated. I'm almost there. Time to enter the Cloister

The Grand Master's Chambers
The Grand Master's chambers are beyond this door. The guards possibly have keys. A fight to the death awaits just across this threshold. I must prepare for a fight to the death.

Face to Face
My meeting with the Grand Master did not go as I thought it would. A confrontation with Jacques de Aldersberg is imminent, the pursuit ends here. I've forced the Grand Master into a confrontation which only one of us will survive.
