Secondary quest

The Cannibal is an optional quest in Chapter II which begins when Geralt finds half-eaten human remains in a hut in the Swamp.

Walkthrough[ | ]

The only way Geralt can obtain this quest is by visiting Gramps' hut. Gramps need not be there when he does, but Geralt must enter the hut and approach the table. As he does, he will notice half-eaten human remains, evidently "dinner" leftovers and remark that a cannibal must live there.

If Geralt discovers this before speaking to Gramps about his pilgrimage to the Shrine of Melitele, that quest is no longer an option during that conversation. To do both quests, Geralt should accompany Gramps to the shrine before going to his hut as the trigger is when Geralt looks around and sees gnawed bones.

Both quests are optional, but they also provide some useful opportunities for experience and loot.
