Objective(s):

Unexpected Visit Walkthrough

Go to Your Father

At the start of the Unexpected Visit main quest, exit Henry’s house and take a right heading north a short way to reach the forge where Henry’s father is working. Talk with him to get a list of errands that Henry needs to run in town.

Pick Up the Cross-Guard at the Castle

For this first task on Hal’s list during the Unexpected Visit main quest, follow the road northwest from the forge to reach the castle. Once there, speak with the two guards (Janek and Jaroslav) at the castle gate to obtain the cross-guard.

Go to the Sword-Fighting Lesson

With the cross-guard now in our possession, it’s time for a sword-fighting lesson. Head east into town and when you reach the well, take a right by the gallows to find Combat Master Vanyek sitting on a picnic table (next to the dice table). Speak with Vanyek and tell him you’re ready for some training. Follow him southwest towards the herd of sheep to reach the combat arena then talk with him once again to begin the combat tutorial where you’ll learn the basics of sword-fighting.

Collect the Debt from Kunesh

Next up on Henry’s list of things to do during the Unexpected Visit quest is collecting the debt from Kunesh. You can find him working outside his house near the stables northwest of the gallows. Talk to him about collecting the debt to enter a persuasion dialog event. The generic and the speech dialog option will lead to the “Try to Get the Axe, Hammer and Nails Back Another Way” objective.  The strength dialog option will lead to a fight and the objective “Find Something at Kunesh’s Worth Selling”. If you win the fight, you will obtain Kunesh’s keys.

(Optional) Try to Get the Axe, Hammer and Nails Back Another Way

If you chose the strength dialog option, just take the items. If you pick the generic or speech dialog options, knock Kunesh out and take Kunesh’s keys to open the chest in his house. Inside, you’ll find the hammer, nails, and an axe to steal.

(Optional) Find Something at Kunesh’s Worth Selling

If you fought Kunesh and won, you can grab his axe from the wood splitting stump and enter his house. Go through the first door on the right, unlock the trunk under the window with the key, and take the hammer and nails. Getting the axe, hammer, and nails completes this goal.

(Optional) Get a Lockpick from Fritz to Open Kunesh’s Chest

If you choose the generic or speech dialogue options, sneak into Kunesh’s house and locate the locked chest to complete this task. Head towards the town center, past the wooden tables, into the fenced area near the tavern to trigger a cutscene. Your friends will ask for your help with a lousy job. Choose “I’ll do it, but I need your help in return.”

(Optional) Go with Your Friends to Deutsch’s House

Follow your friends to Deutsch’s house located on the eastern side of town.

(Optional) Discuss the Plan of Attack With Your Friends

Once at Deutsch’s house, talk with your friends to come up with a plan.

(Optional) Lure Deutsch’s Wife Away

Speak with Deutsch’s wife sitting on a bench near the house next to the chicken coup.  Mention to her that Deutch is running his mouth at the tavern and she will leave to deal with him.

(Optional) Go and Get Revenge on Deutsch

A cutscene will automatically trigger, followed by a good old-fashioned fistfight.

(Optional) Run from the Catchpole

Flea from the catchpole by following the guys southeast towards the fence surrounding Skalitz.

(Optional) Meet the Lads at Kunesh’s

Head over to Kunesh’s house and talk to the guys there. Fritz will give you a lockpick to open Kunesh’s chest if you asked for help dealing with Kunesh before the objective “Go with Your Friends to Deutsch’s House” is triggered. Talk to the guys again to complete the objective. Check out the objective “Try to Get the Axe, Hammer and Nails Back Another Way” above if you haven’t finished it yet.

Buy a Bag of Charcoal at Market

The Charcoal-Burner’s Helper in the middle of Skalitz standing in front of the gallows. Speak with him to trade and sell the axe, hammer and nails you got from Kunesh to buy 10 charcoals.

Buy Ale at the Tavern

The last thing on Henry’s list is to grab some ale from the tavern. Travel to it in the fenced-in area near the center of Skalitz. If this is your first time there, a cutscene will trigger between Henry and his friends. Once it concludes, you’ll have the option then to help your friends teach Deutsch a lesson via the “Go with Your Friends to Deutsch’s House” objective above. Choosing to not go will lower Hal’s reputation a bit while going could land him in some hot water. Either way, head inside Bianca’s Tavern when you’re ready and speak with Bianca to obtain a pitcher of ale. She will also give you 5 Saviour Schnapps, which is a consumable item used in Kingdom Come Deliverance to save the game.

Go Back to Father at the Forge

With Hal’s shopping list for the Unexpected Visit main quest completed, it’s time to head back to your father at his forge near Henry’s house.  Speak with him when you get there and tell him you’re ready to start forging to trigger a cutscene.

Go and Get Nails for Theresa

When you regain control of Henry, head into his house and take a left through the door to locate the trunk containing the nails and grab them (along with the rest of the chest’s contents). Head back to Theresa and speak with her to complete the Unexpected Visit quest.
