[edit] Walkthrough
This is the quest which enables Geralt to get out of the Dungeon. When he tried to leave the Outskirts of Vizima at the end of Act I, after having killed the Beast, Geralt was ambushed by City guards, with the help of Mikul, and quite unceremoniously thrown into the dungeon. All is not lost though as Vincent Meis, captain of the City Guard, announces that there is a way to win passage out of prison by defeating a cockatrice which is currently roaming, unchecked, through the Sewers of Vizima. This seems an ideal option for the witcher...
[edit] Notes
It is not strictly necessary to complete this quest in Act II. The actual quest to get out of the dungeon (Prison Break) which leads to this quest must be completed or the game cannot continue, but this quest really only refers to cashing in the trophy head, which can be done at any time.
The only real concern with trophy heads is not having more than one to cash in at any one time as there is only one trophy hook in Geralt's inventory.
[edit] Phases
[edit] The Skoffin
I killed the cockatrice and took its head as the proof. I should talk to Vincent. I need to deliver the proof of having killed the cockatrice to Vincent.
[edit] Proof
I delivered proof of having killed the cockatrice and received 400 orens. I received my payment for the trophy. (3000 XP)
[edit] If Geralt does not complete the quest in Act II
[edit] A New Employer
Vincent no longer holds the key to the coffer. I should see the Royal Huntsman about my reward.
[edit] Proof
I delivered proof of having killed the cockatrice and received 400 orens. I received my payment for the trophy. (3000 XP)
