Complete walkthrough for the Warding Off Evil quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. Learn how to find the Holy Nail, Horseshoe, and Commemorative Coin to forge a Protective Axe and earn rewards.
Walkthrough
- 1Start the Quest: Head to The Emperor Charles Tavern in northwest Kuttenberg and speak with Johann Parlar. He's worried about the Church of Saint Barbara and needs you to craft a Protective Axe using scattered talismans.
- 2Forge a Protective Axe: The axe requires a Holy Nail, a Coin, and a Horseshoe.
- 3Steal the Holy Nail: Go to the city’s northernmost entrance and enter the fifth house along. It's best to wait until nightfall. Sneak upstairs, lockpick the door (easy difficulty), and climb the ladder to find the Holy Nail on a table.
- 4Steal the Horseshoe: Head southeast of the Vintner’s Street Fountain, towards the tavern. Enter the alleyway, go into the first door on the left, and take another left. The Horseshoe will be hanging above the door.
- 5Steal the Commemorative Coin: Go to the Hangman’s Halter Tavern, south of the Grain Market. Enter the basement via the first door on the right after the stairs. Approach the far back wall and interact with the exposed bricks to find the Commemorative Coin.
- 6Build the Protective Axe: Go to the Smithy on Merchants Street and craft the Protective Axe using the collected items.
- 7Complete the Quest: Return the Protective Axe to Johann Parlar at The Emperor Charles Tavern.
