The Rat



The Rat is an optional quest in Chapter II which Geralt can undertake for Coleman. It involves clearing some ghosts out of a house for the dealer.

Walkthrough
Geralt meets Coleman at The Hairy Bear, in the back room. When he asks if Coleman has any work for a witcher, the latter admits that he does (only if Geralt has updated Suspect: Vincent Meis quest to the part where he needs to visit the warehouse at midnight, otherwise he will not offer the quest). He needs a house cleared of ghosts which are wreaking havoc inside. The witcher accepts and promptly heads over to the address supplied by the dealer. Once inside, he is greeted by two wraiths. He quickly dispatches them and returns for his reward.

A Ghost Story
I promised Coleman I would check out the so-called "haunted house". I need to go there and see if there is some kind of threat and eliminate it if necessary. ''I must go to the haunted house and see if there is any real threat. If yes, then I should eliminate it.''

Ghosts
Amazing. Those really were ghosts. Well, time to go back and see Coleman about my money for the job. It's time to go back and see Coleman for the payment. (500 XP)

The Dike
Coleman is nowhere to be found. Luckily, the bartender told me Coleman can often be seen on the Dike and simultaneously warned me not to do business with him. I'm supposed to come back later, the innkeeper wants to know what Coleman's up to. I must go to the Dike and see Coleman.

Snitch
I met Coleman on the bridge. It turns out he's Vincent's rat. That's a very useful piece of information... I need to go to the innkeeper who will be very glad to pay for the denunciation. But do I really want to expose Coleman? If I want to expose Coleman, I must go to the innkeeper. (100 + 500 XP)

Decision
Coleman's case solved. Coleman's case solved. (1500 XP)
