Lornruk is an abandoned tower located on the Pontar, separating Velen from Novigrad. Guarded by a wyvern, the tower is also located right next to a Place of Power for Quen.

When first approached the drawbridge will be retracted and the only entrance is an underwater cavern guarded by several drowners swimming in the moat below. The drawbridge can be lowered once inside to make return visits much easier.

Map Description

Years ago smugglers would come here to load and unload illicit cargo. Now this fort's treasures are still to be ransacked. The drawbridge is out, forcing intrepid souls to locate an underwater entrance up into this place.

  • Instead of going through the cave to reach the tower's interior, the player can simply leap over the gap onto the cliff's right side crags and climb over the fence in order to lower the bridge.
  • Alternatively, one can climb up the hill from the Place of Power and circle around to the front with a couple of precise jumps, then climb over the fence.

Bugs

  • Sometimes 2 hidden treasure markers will show up at this location instead of just 1 (for the Griffin School Gear).
