Small Problems

Small Problems is a secondary quest in Act IV of The Witcher, set at the broken bridge in the Fields near Murky Waters. Harn the mason is trying to repair the bridge, but every night griggs undo everything he built during the day. Ask him about witcher work and he will happily hand the problem over.

This is one monster problem that is solved with diplomacy rather than steel. Abigail, the village healer, explains that a nastier tribe of griggs stole a cat harness from the bridge griggs, and that getting it back should put them in a better mood. Return the harness to their santon by the bridge, collect the four-leaf clover they leave as a token of friendship and bring it to Harn, who gladly pays up.

Walkthrough

  1. Talk to Harn at the broken bridge in the Fields and ask about witcher work.
  2. Visit Abigail the healer, who tells you the bridge griggs’ cat harness was stolen by another tribe.
  3. Go to the crypt in the Fields and take the cat harness from the santon there.
  4. Show the harness to Abigail, then place it on the santon next to the bridge. (A bottle of strong alcohol left at the santon also works and lets you skip the crypt.)
  5. Take the four-leaf clover the griggs leave behind.
  6. Give the clover to Harn and pick your reward.
