Act II - Introduction
Welcome to Act II on Iorveth's side! You'll be lifting the curse from the Pontar Valley as well as learning a bit more about what happened to Triss. Along the way, you'll also cure Saskia, who's been poisoned during a war council meeting.
Before all that, you'll be playing prince Stennis who's on his way to meet with Aedirn nobility. After negotiations, a fight will ensue and that's when Henselt will invoke a terrible curse (after smashing that priest's head due to being enraged from the outcome of his duel with Saskia).
Right in the nick of time, Geralt and Iorveth arrive and defend the wounded prince from the onslaught of wraiths and restless ghosts with the help of Philippa Eilhart, one of the most powerful sorceresses alive. After getting back to the camp and once the situation settles down, you'll be free to do the quests as you please (after you complete
The War Council), and as always there's a recommended list for them assorted in a way to grant fluid questing process.
