Where Children Toil, Toys Waste Away Main Story, Blood and Wine Quest

1. Find the bootblack who appeared in the vision.

It proved quite the ordeal for Regis, a sacrifice one might say. But they obtained the last ingredient required for Resonance, and the vampire could prepare the concoction. Geralt drank a dose, and visions ensued. He saw Dettlaff meet and speak to a young bootblack. Then the witcher and the vampire set off in search of the boy.

2. Visit the bootblack during his working hours.

Boy starts at 8 am.

3. Defend the bootblack from his attackers.

Fistfight. You can win, you can lose, it does not matter.

4. Follow Regis through the city.

The bootblack proved both pugnacious and resolute. Geralt and Regis were desperate to learn anything they could about Dettlaff. The boy sensed this and decided to take advantage. It was clear he would one day go far, such was the knack he demonstrated for business. As regarded the search for Dettlaff, Geralt and Regis learned he had brought his boots to be cleaned on a number of occasions. Each time, he had asked the boy to return them to an old, abandoned shop, where he was to leave them at the door. The witcher and the vampire set off to explore the site.

5. Enter the toy shop.

6. Search the toy shop using your Witcher Senses.

7. Use your Witcher Senses to look for clues in the toy shop.

Go upstairs and look for Suspicious letter and Letters naming the Beast's targets.

8. Quest completed.

Geralt and Regis then searched Dettlaff's hideout. Ironically, the "Beast" had made his lair in a storeroom above an abandoned toy shop. After thoroughly searching the site, the witcher and the vampire deduced that Dettlaff was being black-mailed. He had committed the murders in Toussaint at the behest of mysterious individuals who were holding his beloved hostage. Our intrepid duo resolved to split up. Regis would remain at the toy shop and hope Dettlaff would return. He preferred to speak with Dettlaff alone, without the witcher there to disrupt their tête-à-tête...
