It was clear at this time that this particular morsel had both Radovid and Emhyr greedily licking their chops. War raged throughout the known world, and rich cities often prove tempting morsels to armies on the march. Yet Novigrad at this time was not the city Geralt knew from his earlier travels. It would take seas of ink to describe the city accurately, so suffice it to say it is the seat of the Church of the Eternal Fire, a bustling port city and a haven for artists. You can watch a cutscene at Hierarch Square where Caleb Menge, the head of the witch hunters and commander of the Temple Guard, is introduced as he executes Felicia Cori and the doppler Chappelle at the stake.Ĭiri's trail took Geralt to Novigrad, the largest city in the North. Some of these quests may have dialogue choices that will alter the ending of the game. Main Quests are the main storyline of the game that can have a major effect towards the endings.

I lost the thief after the scene but I was then able to go the the beggar over the street (NW corner of square) and progress in the quest.Pyres of Novigrad is a M ain Quest in The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt. I kept doing this until I got him towards the West end of the street by the band that plays in the square. He got scared and ran away from me towards the square. Next, I positioned myself in front of him so his back was towards the square and used Igni. That didn't quite work out as he'd eventually circle around me. When a cloaked figure came by, I tried to bump/push him towards the square. On the street that goes W/E at the bottom of the square, I went East, past the juggler/begger/guards, to the intersection where the street comes down and curves to the East. I figured that I'd have to force one there. In fact none ever showed up in the square. No thieves (cloaked figures / shady characters) ever showed up in or near the yellow circles. Talking to beggars didn't get me anywhere.
