The task in the game “The Witcher 3” “Question of life and death” is interesting in its execution style, although it poses some difficulties for the player. That it can be the beginning of a new romance with Triss Merigold - a famous character in the series. Users should have a complete guide at hand, as there are quite difficult moments in the quest.
Important information
Each user should know that the beginning of the “Question of life and death” task in “The Witcher 3” may make it impossible to complete the other three quests. This list includes the removal of the charms from two statuettes - a soldier and a nobleman in the missions of the same name, as well as "Enemy of the People" with the study of the Philippe Eilhart megascope. The reason for this will be the beginning of a new task after visiting the chambers of Radovid, which will exclude these quests from the list of available ones. Surrender "Question of life and death" automatically activates it. Such additional tasks are not required, but for them you can get a nice reward with easy completion.
Start of quest
Since Triss Merigold greatly helped Geralt in the search for Buttercup, you should go to her asylum in order to help in her task. We go there and talk with a lovely lady. She will report that a certain Ingrid Wegelbud agreed to help the sorceress. A meeting with his man should take place in the city market. The target will be dressed in a blue caftan and will respond to the phrase about fresh trout.
Finding the right character will not be easy, as many people walk in similar clothes. The player needs one without a hood. The first time he does not agree to make contact with the hero. In the game The Witcher 3, quests often begin in this way, and until you do a service in return for the non-player character, he will not want to start a conversation. This time you have to kill the mercenaries in the market. At the end of the fight, the man in the blue caftan himself will speak and post the necessary information. Suddenly, Triss Merigold comes up to the couple and talks about the real goals of this assignment.
The main purpose and masks
In The Witcher 3, The Question of Life and Death is a mission that continues with conversation in the market. The sorceress will tell that their real goal is to save Ingrid Wegelbud, who is fond of alchemy. Because of this activity, wizard hunters attacked him. The mother of the young master is very worried and asks to save him. To do this, Geralt and Triss must go to a family reception. Here they need to wait until the party is in full swing so that no one pays attention to them, and take Ingrid away.
You can get there only in the corresponding outfits, which is one of the main difficulties of the quest “Question of life and death” in “The Witcher 3”. What mask to wear on the main character and his companion is not said, but you can guess logically. Geralt is called the White Wolf, and therefore for him the outfit must be this animal. Sorceresses are all cunning, and the appearance of a fox will suit Triss Merigold. You can buy masks in Elichal. Here it’s worth buying a caftan for the witcher. You can immediately change clothes before going to your companion.
Plot development
After solving the issue with the masks in the quest “Question of life and death” in “The Witcher 3”, the player should go to the reception. On the way to Ingrid's mother, Geralt will several times meet his drunken acquaintances, who will begin to pester during the conversation. Do not make noise with them and attract attention. At the ball there is Dijkstra in the mask of a boar, with whom you can also talk.
Before you go to continue the task is to play a gwent. You will get the opportunity to win good cards for yourself. When you're done with this, you can head to the owner of the estate. She will say that her son wears a panther mask and share other interesting information. At the end of the conversation, find Ingrid Wegelbud himself. Talk to him and say that you want to save him. Make an appointment in the garden after the fireworks thunder at the ball. In "The Witcher 3" quests are mostly worked out and are distinguished by lively dialogues. With non-player characters, you can start a conversation about different things and often get useful data from this.
Possible novel and end of the quest
In the game “The Witcher 3”, the passage of the “Question of Life and Death” (task) after a conversation with Ingrid will be temporarily suspended. We'll have to wait for the fireworks and at this time you can afford to drink wine from Triss. She will agree, and after a few glasses there will be an opportunity to grab her in her arms and kiss her under the beautiful explosions of salutes.
After that, go to the garden, which is made in the form of an artificial maze. There you will exchange masks with Ingrid, and they and Triss will go forward. At this moment, hunters of wizards come upon who will take Geralt for their goal. We'll have to deal with several opponents in the middle of the garden. When the battle is over, head to the stables. The final scene will begin, where Triss and Ingrid will gallop away from the estate. After that, the task will be completed, and the witcher will gain experience for successful completion and reward.
