Authore: GraceUpdate:Feb 25,2025

This guide details completing the "For Whom the Bell Tolls" quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. This main quest follows "Wedding Crashers," where Hans faces execution in Trosky. Henry, spared execution to become a laborer, must save Hans before the bell tolls twelve times.

The Steps to Freedom

Begin by transporting sacks from a wagon to a nearby shed. This is a mandatory task; repeat until complete.

Next, assist the blacksmith by crafting a horseshoe using materials found at the forge. Deliver the finished horseshoe to the stables.

Fanka's Favor

Retrieve a lockpick from a red pot in the forge. Speak with Fanka, the cook, and offer assistance to gain kitchen access. While lockpicking isn't strictly required, it boosts reputation and provides future food access.

Chamberlain's Conundrum

Speak to the ailing chamberlain. Persuading him to let you brew a Digestive Potion grants access to the surgeon's workshop. Otherwise, stealth is necessary.

Brewing the Cure

If stealth is required, acquire food from the kitchen to distract a guard. Locate the surgeon's workshop and craft a Fever Tonicum (and a Digestive Potion if you persuaded the chamberlain). Sufficient ingredients are in the workshop chest.

Thomas' Treatment

Deliver the Digestive Potion to the chamberlain (if applicable) to gain access to Thomas. Alternatively, use stealth to reach Thomas' room, potentially distracting a guard with a pebble. Give Thomas' sister, Adele, the Fever Tonicum to trigger the quest's conclusion.

Successfully completing these steps before the bell tolls twelve times earns reputation. However, the quest outcome remains the same regardless of timing.
