Examine young von Grolle’s room

Head to the von Grolle home near the center of Kuttenberg and speak with Servant Thaddeus in the morning before noon. You can tell him that you’ve either come to heal his master or train Hendl.

If you choose to go the doctor route, you’ll examine the patient upstairs, passing persuasion checks. You’ll need to give him a digestive potion, painkiller potion, and alcohol. After you treat her husband, speak with the wife and she’ll give you 225 groschen. You’ll then be able to enter the son’s room across the hall once they go to see the husband.

In the son’s room, loot the chest (hard) next to the bed in the son’s room to find his trophies.
