World Map: White Orchard

REMINDER: Always check large fallen trees for stashed GOLD!

Player Notes:

There are a myriad of Locations of Interest on my map that I wish to clear. With no HUD and no Map, this will be a hard task. The first location is a ghoul’s nest. I’ve no bombs crafted yet. I must move on.

Success. My second location was a guarded treasure with only three bandits to protect it. I picked up a few weapons I’ll be able to trade for gold.

Success. For my third location I happened upon a chest of valuables that I read about in a Dead Soldier’s Letter. I recovered a Vicovaro blade, Reliever’s decoction, Basilisk decoction, and a Diagram: Broadhead bolts. Sadly three men died, also trying to recover the valuables located here. To climb back up to the road, simply go left of the chests and climb the stone face. From here I must head north, but first I meditate to recoup.

I know how to access the next location.

Success. For my fourth location I was able to use a finishing move to decapitate one of the bandits. I can sell some of the looted items. I found the book Interrogation Report, and a Diagram: Serpentine Steel Sword. The report depicts the suspected actions of Witcher Kolgrim accused of kidnapping Vitty, son of Paul. The Witcher was proven innocent but had already been killed via trial of ordeal.

“…rather than face the baronet’s judgement, he chose trial by ordeal. Sir Ignatius agreed and ordered he cleanse the Verrieres family crypt of specters. Kolgrim never emerged from said crypt. It is highly likely the motley wraiths, specters, and evil power residing therein proved too much for him.”

I now head west into the forest.

Success. I slew the bandits and recovered the Water Hag Decoction at my fifth location. I head towards a nearby bridge.

Success. I looted the items from under the bridge at my sixth location.

I follow the road from the bridge to my seventh location. Success. I killed the ghouls and the local population has returned to the site; a shrine to which they pray. A merchant stands here and I purchased a recipe for White Gull.

I’ve finally collected what I need to create Necrophage Oil.

Success. At my eighth location I found a Place of Power. I should draw from it.

Success. At my nineth location I found a Place of Power. I should draw from it.

Success. I was confronted by a band of bandits in my tenth location, but they were sloppy. I cut a man clean in two. I located the Earth Elemental Decoction and Forktail Decoction. My travels will take me north towards the Sawmill.

Success. At my eleventh location I found the Sawmill abandoned. Clearing the ghouls allowed the population to return.

Success. At my twelfth location I cleared the bandits. I came across the recipe for the Dancing Star bomb, and Succubus Decoction.

Success. I cleared my thirteenth location. To access more locations I must travel East.

I encountered a quest.

Success. I was able to locate my fourteenth location at the bottom of a lake. I found an Enhanced Saddle.

Success. At my fifteenth location I found a Place of Power. I should draw from it.

Success. At my sixteenth location I found a Place of Power. I should draw from it.

Success. At my seventeenth location I found a Place of Power. I should draw from it.

Success. At my eighteenth location I fought wolves and found Scrawled Notes, Diagram: Exploding Bolt, and Leshen Decoction.

Success. At my nineteenth location I fought wolves and found Spy’s Notes.

Success. At location twenty, I encountered a large group of bandits and it took a while to cut them all down. Looting the site completed the quest Dirty Funds.

Success. At the twenty first, and very last location in White Orchard has been cleared. I found the Tawny Owl recipe. * There is a twenty second location, but is not accessible at this point in time.
