Buried Past

So... Turns out my father had some sort of a secret meeting spot, deep in the woods. Should I go look for it?

I met Volk – my father's friend from long ago. And unlike Pieter, he seems eager to talk about their shared past.

I should check on Volk – it's been a while.

I know the Secret Glade was somewhere near Parlita... But where exactly?

Volk asked me to bring some slivovitz next time I see him. I should be able to get a bottle in one of Svartrau's taverns.

Volk says he's got a trick to show me. Let's see if the old fox can teach me something useful.

Is this where my father hid his half of the treasure? Or maybe Volk made it all up?

My father and a prayerbook? An unlikely pairing. Maybe the monks at the monastery where the book was copied can tell me more.

The monk wasn't surprised when I asked him about my father's treasure – and told me to follow him.

Volk betrayed me – helped to set up an ambush for me. I should tell him how I feel about it.

Something's very wrong. There are dead soldiers outside Volk's hut – and the old man's missing. I'd better look for him.

So my father really did have treasure – and handed it all off to the monks of Maragir. I wonder what Volk will think.

I should probably check on Volk – see how he's doing.

My old man never struck me as man of faith. So what's the prayerbook doing in his secret stash?

Hah! So my father did stash his things away here. But what things, exactly? Let's take a look.

Volk seems tired. Let's give him a day to rest.

Volk seems tired. Let's give him a day to rest.

What was my father doing here? Maybe I'll find some answers if I look around.

These big rocks – we called them 'Giants's pawns'. By following them, I should find the way to the Secret Glade.

I need to find something familiar to recall our steps. We'd go to Parlita, get sweet buns for the road...

If my father really did have treasure, I think he'd have hidden it in our Secret Glade. Let's go there – and take a look.

What was my father doing here? Maybe I'll find some answers if I look around.

Who's this old man? And how does he know my father? I need to talk to him.

Volk seems tired. Let's give him a day to rest.

Might be a good idea to check up on Volk.

Hard to dig for treasure without a shovel... Maybe there's one somewhere around here.

Let's see if there really is treasure here.

Volk betrayed me, sold me out to Brencis's men. He doesn't deserve to live.

Let's cross our blades – and see if Volk is still worth his salt.

Who's this man? Why's he so aggressive? I need to fend him off!

Volk said he'd appreciate if I chopped some wood for him. Why not?

Volk says he's bothered by a pack of wolves. They must have a den nearby. Let's check for tracks behind the house.

Volk is suffering from back pain – and I offered to help. To do so, I need to start by collecting some herbs by the riverbank.

I got rid of the wolves that were bothering Volk – the old man should be pleased.

I need to make an ointment for Volk. I should find all I need by his stove.

I should bring the wood back to Volk's hut.

The nights are getting colder – let's make sure the old man has enough firewood to keep warm.

I should bring the wood back to Volk's hut.

Volk lost his precious knife – he waved it around in the dark and it slipped out of his hand. Maybe it landed in some bushes? Or on his hovel's rooftop? Let's see if I can find it.

Found it! Volk should be glad.

Volk asked me to board up the window because it gets cold at night. Shouldn't be too much of a hassle.

I've been betrayed – and now need to fight for my life.
