Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Axe From the Lake Quest Guide

Embark on a rewarding side quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: The Axe From the Lake. These optional tasks often yield valuable rewards, making them well worth your time. This guide will walk you through completing this intriguing quest.

How to Start "The Axe From the Lake"

To begin, head to the Tachov tavern and seek out Zdenyek the Mouth. Engage him in conversation, prompting him to share something informative. He'll reveal details about a legendary axe hidden within the lake, setting your quest in motion.

Locating the Axe

Before venturing to the objective marker, gather a spade. These are commonly found in graveyards or can be purchased from general traders. The objective marker covers a wide area; begin at the pier overlooking the water. Follow the northern path, noting Henry's comments upon reaching an undamaged tree and a large rock. The path will lead you to a gravesite near a tree. Digging it up will unearth a gemstone ring, five marigolds, and—crucially—a broken axe.

Repairing the Axe

To repair the axe, visit blacksmith Radovan in Tachov. He'll require a fastening material and a significant sum of 699.5 groschen. You can also purchase the fastening material from Radovan. Once repaired, the broken axe transforms into the Adorned Axe. Return to Zdenyek to complete the quest and claim your prize—a powerful new weapon for your arsenal.

Congratulations! You've successfully completed "The Axe From the Lake." The Adorned Axe is yours to wield in battle. For more Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 guides and tips, including help with treating the wounded in "Finger of God" and a complete breakdown of romance options, check out The Escapist.
