Wild at Heart

Side Quest: Wild At Heart Walkthrough
Ok so to begin this quest you will first need to travel to Mullbrydale as seen on the image to the right. Once there look the the Notice Board and get a contract there to start. As you will have noticed on starting the quest it tell you to go search for a hunter called Niellen who can be found in the small village of Blackbough.

Once you arrive at Blackbough speak to Niellen who can be found standing outside a hut simply follow your waypoint on the minimap to locate him. When speaking to him make sure you agree to go looing for his wife. After talking with the hunter make you way to the neighours houses again simply follow the markers on your minimap and speak to the other villagers and find out more in relation to Hanna's sudden and mesteryous disappearance.

Once you have finished talking to the towns folk head to the next destination indicated by your minimap and once there use your Witcher Senses to scout the area for signs of Hanna, when you arrive at your destination you will be greeted by a pack of wolves which you need to decimate in order to continue with this quest. Once the pack has been killed it will triger a cutscene were Hanna's sister will tell you to stop looking for hanna, when the time comes to choose tell her you will find hanna and continue with your search. Once the cutscene has ended using your Witcher Senses look around the area and you should find a dead dog highlighted in red which you can examine, along with some claw marks on the ground and a lovely corpse that has been torn apart...Lovely.

Now follow the claw marks using your Witcher Senses, this will lead you a scratched stone at which point Gerald says he cannot climb that high bla bla bla... He will then tell you that you need to look for something else on the ground "hint hint" time to look around the area of the tree. You will eventually find a piece of fur and after examining it Gerald will be able to follow its scent using Witcher Senses. The scent will lead you to a few bits of torn clothing which you must again follow untill it leads you to a shack in the middle of the forest and before I forget or you get your head bitten off I must warn you, several bears roam the area near the hut. Once there go into the shack and search area as there is a tad bit of looting to be done here and there is a locked chest (more on that later), whilst doing so you will be able to see with your Witcher senses some mysterious notes on the ground infront of the bed grab them and they will go into your inventory, no need to read em but do so if you wish. Now exit the hut and use your Witcher Senses yet again turning to your left as you exit the hut you will see a trail of blood leading you to a door under the hut itself which you will need to break open usin gyour sword or Aard and this will reveal a cave. Now i recommend you do this during the day because the boss fight that occurs next must be done at night. Now if you went ahead and took my advice, go into the cave during the day and use your torch or a Cat potion to light up your way in the cave. Search the cave as you will find several chests to loot down here with lovely goodies. Also the reason behind coming here before the boss fight is so you familierize your self with the cave before the fight "preparation is key in this game!"

Boss Fight: The Werewolf
Ok so like I said above you need to enter the cave at night so use meditate to speed things up, make sure to have enough food and drink in your inventory, along with potions and bombs. And for the love of god save before going into the cave.

Ok so its night you have saved your game and have all your gear ready, well its time to go kill the big bad wolf. Make your way down into the cave, and once you pass the waypoint on the minimap the boss along with his three wolfy friends will run in the cave via the entrance you just came in so beware he will run in behind you. As he does dodge him and let him run into the cave whilst you attempt to kill off the three small wolfs to make your fight with the boss easier.

This boss has few moves:
 * 1) Normal melee - Biscally claws you and deals a good chunk of damage
 * 2) Healing - after you take about half his health he will start to regenerate

Ok so my fight didnt last very long so i only got to see the two moves stated above, this fight was said to have been insanly hard as you can see from the start of the video i will be posting of this fight, but once i get my act together you can see with the use of two bombs ...i mean one due to the first one missing and then again using the two bombs with poison gas which i combined with igni to make the gas blow quickly took care of that. Once you kill the wolf you will trigger a cutscene which I will not explain as not to spoil it for you. Personally i decided to show mercy on the wolf but not on the sister, but its up to you what you decide. Now the only thing left to do is loot the wolf and get Niellen's key which incidently opens that chest I told you about earlier. Now head up to the hut and grab your self some more loot just for the hell of it, oh an congratulations you have now finished this quest!
