The second part of the Witcher game, although it is distinguished by the smaller size and duration of the passage from the first, is still filled with many events and additional storylines. In this article you will learn about the quest "Bag of Feathers" in "The Witcher 2".
Description
First, it’s worth talking about where to find this task, at what stage in the storyline it appears and what it takes to activate it.
Firstly, the quest "The Bag of Feathers" in "The Witcher 2" in the original is called A Sackful of Fluff (for those who are going to pass the game in English). You can stumble on a task both during the passage of the plot for the side of Roche, and for the side of Yorvet. In both cases, access to the quest opens in the second chapter. In the case of passing for Roche, you can get to the task after you get rid of the fog of war and get to the settlement of the gnomes. If you pass for the elves, then you can activate the quest at the beginning of the second chapter, if you leave the city.
In order to get the task, the current status of the storyline is not important. You just need to go to the canyon with the harpies. At the entrance of the location there will be a suspicious hut without doors. You need to go into it and find a strange person there. When talking with him, the task is activated.
What is the point?
The Sack of Feathers quest in The Witcher 2 is weird but funny. During a conversation with a hermit named Elton, it becomes clear that the customer requires a small number of harpy feathers for one secret buyer. It's a strange thing, but a person agrees to pay big money for it, so you can take up the order. Go to the canyon and destroy some birds. It is worth saying that the feathers do not fall from every enemy killed, so it will take 5-10 minutes to destroy the flying ones. After that, we return to Elton and find out that the strange and mysterious collector ordered another 60 feathers. Geralt can take on this task, or refuse it.
If we take on the continuation of the quest “A Bag of Feathers” in “The Witcher 2,” we will have to go to the canyon again. If all the harpies are over, you just need to wait through meditation until the next day.
Having collected all 60 feathers, we again return to the hermit. Elton declares that the collector lacks only 8 feathers, for which he, of course, will also generously pay. To see the full ending of the task, you need to take on this order.
We kill a few more harpies and once again go to Elton. This time Geralt’s torment with the same tasks ends, the customer pays a good amount and says goodbye to you. On the one hand, the Feather Sack quest in The Witcher 2 can be considered a banter on the same tasks of modern games in which you only need to kill and bring a certain amount of booty. But the most interesting is revealed at the end.
Quest ending
You leave with a full pocket of money, and the hermit stays with his feathers. But later you will be sent to this canyon according to the plot. Therefore, do not forget to look at an old friend in the hut. When approaching Elton's dwelling, a short screensaver is activated. What you see in it will surprise you.
Geralt quietly approaches the window and looks into it. There he sees a hermit dressed in a strange suit of pillows and feathers. At the same time, he makes sounds similar to a rooster, and grunt. You can leave the character alone and leave, or go in and say hello. We choose the second option.
The witcher enters the hut and calls Elton to himself. He, without a shadow of embarrassment or awkwardness, greets the protagonist and begins a dialogue. Geralt immediately becomes clear that the hermit has "not everyone is at home" and wants to leave quickly. Elton, in turn, does not see anything wrong with his attire and occupation. On this, the heroes say goodbye to each other.
additional information
When completing the quest, you will find yourself in a canyon, where the main place below is occupied by a cave and stones. The "Bag of Feathers" in The Witcher 2 does not include cave exploration. Access to it will open as you progress through the storyline.
After completing the quest, you will receive a trophy as a reward, which is not hung on a belt, but is worn on the head of Geralt. It looks like a beak of a bird. It is also interesting that only in the Russian voice acting Elton speaks with a noticeable accent, unlike all other heroes. This tells us that this character is not local in those parts. Now you know everything about the passage of the "Bag of Feathers" in "The Witcher 2".
