The Cannibal is a secondary quest in Act II of The Witcher, set in the Swamp Forest. Geralt first meets Gramps, a harmless-looking old man, at the swamp landing, and escorting him to the shrine of Melitele is what A Pilgrimage is all about.
Once that pilgrimage is done, a visit to Gramps’ cabin tells a rather different story: gnawed human bones and leftover brains lying about the place. Grandpa, it seems, has unusual eating habits. What Geralt does about it is entirely up to him – Gramps plays no part in any other quest, so the decision only matters here.
