Berengar’s Secret is a long-running secondary quest about Berengar, a fellow witcher who was away from Kaer Morhen when it was attacked. It opens early in the game as Geralt pieces together his lost past, and it follows him all the way to Chapter IV, with Berengar always seemingly one step ahead.
The trail runs through the Outskirts, the Swamp Forest and Vizima’s Temple Quarter: a sword sold to a fence, gear passed through shady hands, and a job for Kalkstein the Alchemist at a swamp tower. For a while everything points to Berengar being dead, until it turns out Salamandra has him and the Professor has sent him to hunt for the boy Alvin. When the two witchers finally meet, Berengar is bitter, resents life as a despised mutant and admits he worked with the Salamanders. Kalkstein is the one who hands over this quest’s book reward.
