  • Traveling with Ivan
  • Going through the tunnel
  • Meeting with Ratibor
  • Reaching the Grotto

Traveling with Ivan

During the mission, you will have to follow Ivan. He will occasionally stop to talk to you, and at one point, he will ask you to kill some low-level monsters and collect their meat. Do this and return to Ivan, who will be waiting for you at the nearby ruins.

Your conversation with Ivan will continue in the ruins. He will give you a recipe and ask you to cook a meal in a nearby kitchen. You can then rest in the bed located in the ruins.

Going through the tunnel

The journey continues in the morning. The monsters you encounter along the way shouldn’t pose a problem, especially with Ivan’s help in combat. Going through the tunnel, however, can be challenging as you will encounter strong bandits. You can easily kill them by shooting the oil barrel, but make sure to keep your distance as the explosion has a long range.

Meeting with Ratibor

As you approach the Grotto, you will meet Ratibor, who is looking for Ivan. You must choose whether to confirm Ivan’s version or reveal the truth and say that Ivan is not following the faction’s orders.

  1. Confirm Ivan’s version – the Escort Ivan to the Grotto mission will continue.
  2. Reveal the truth – Ivan will be imprisoned, and the Escort Ivan to the Grotto mission will fail. If you choose the latter option, you can now return to Tengis and complete the Tengis’ Judgment quest.

If you want to earn more experience points, side with Ivan. Revealing the truth allows you to complete the Tengis’ Judgment mission faster, but it does not offer any additional bonuses.

Reaching the Grotto

If you side with Ivan, you will continue your journey to the Grotto. As you near the Grotto, Ivan will spot a troll in the area. You can hunt it, but Ivan will not participate in the fight, so this is an option only for advanced characters. After reaching the Grotto, the mission will end, and you can proceed with the Tengis’ Judgment quest.
