Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 For Whom the Bell Tolls Walkthrough

Following the completion of "Wedding Crashers," the quest "For Whom the Bell Tolls" begins with Henry imprisoned in Trosky, facing the imminent execution of his friend Hans once the bell tolls 12 times. Fortunately, Henry is assigned labor duties around the castle, giving him a chance to devise a rescue plan.

Hauling Sacks

Your first task is to haul sacks to a shed. This is a mandatory step, so grab a sack from the wagon and carry it to the shed beside the fenced area. Drop the sack inside and repeat the process until the objective is fulfilled.

Help the Blacksmith

Next, you're directed to assist the blacksmith, who reluctantly asks you to forge a horseshoe. Head through the archway opposite the blacksmith to reach the forge area. Gather the necessary materials and craft the horseshoe. Once done, return to the blacksmith for his approval, then proceed to the stables along the path where you hauled the sacks to deliver the horseshoe.

Help Fanka the Cook

After delivering the horseshoe, your focus shifts to aiding Hans. Return to the forge and retrieve a lockpick from the red pot on the shelves. Engage with the woman nearby, Fanka, who works in the noble's kitchen. Offering to help her grants you access to the kitchen. Follow Fanka inside, and though you don't need to lockpick the door for her, doing so can boost your reputation and secure future access to food.

Speak with the Chamberlain

Upon entering the kitchen, you'll encounter the chamberlain suffering from discomfort. Try to persuade him to let you concoct a Digestive Potion. Success here grants you access to the surgeon's workshop; otherwise, you'll need to sneak in.

Make Fever Tonicum

If you couldn't convince the chamberlain, you'll need to use kitchen food to distract a guard and sneak into the workshop. Otherwise, proceed directly to the workshop located up the stairs opposite the forge. Inside, craft the Fever Tonicum and, if you persuaded the chamberlain, a Digestive Potion using the ingredients found in the room's chest.

Cure Thomas

If you're assisting the chamberlain, deliver the Digestive Potion to him to gain permission to treat Thomas. For those sneaking in, navigate through the noble's kitchen, avoiding guards by taking the stairs. Stay crouched and use a pebble to distract the guard at the staircase leading to Thomas' room. Once past the guard, proceed to Thomas' room where his sister, Adele, cares for him. Hand over the Fever Tonicum to Adele, triggering the quest's concluding cutscene.

Completing "For Whom the Bell Tolls" in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* before the 12th bell tolls will enhance your reputation. Even if you miss the deadline, the quest's outcome remains unchanged. Follow this guide to ensure a successful rescue and progression in your journey through the game.
