In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, engaging in side quests like The Axe From the Lake can enrich your gaming experience with rewarding outcomes. Here’s a detailed guide on how to successfully complete this quest.
How to Start Axe From the Lake in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
To kick off The Axe From the Lake quest, make your way to the tavern in Tachov. There, you'll find an NPC named Zdenyek the Mouth. Engage him in conversation and ask for something informative. He will regale you with tales of a mythical axe submerged in a lake, setting you on your quest.
How to Find the Axe From the Lake
Before embarking on your journey, ensure you have a spade in hand, as you'll need it to dig up a grave. Spades can typically be found in graveyards or purchased from general traders in settlements.
Follow your objective marker to a large area, and head directly to the pier facing the water. From there, travel north along the road until you spot an undamaged tree, which Henry will comment on. Continue along the path until you reach a large rock, prompting another remark from Henry.
Keep following the path until you encounter a gravesite in front of a tree. Use your spade to dig up the grave, where you will uncover the following items:
- Gemstone
- Silver Ring
- Marigold x5
- Broken Axe
Repairing the Axe
With the Broken Axe in your possession, head to the blacksmith Radovan in Tachov. Request his services to repair the axe, but be prepared to provide him with a Fastening Material and a substantial fee of 699.5 groschen. Fastening Materials can also be purchased from Radovan.
Once repaired, the Broken Axe transforms into the Adorned Axe. To complete the quest, return to Zdenyek the Mouth and inform him of your success. You can then keep the Adorned Axe for use in battle, adding a powerful weapon to your arsenal.
