How to Find the Axe From the Lake

Before embarking on your journey, ensure you're equipped with a spade, as you'll need it to dig up a grave during the quest. Spades can typically be found in graveyards or purchased from general traders in settlements. Once prepared, follow your objective marker, which will lead you to a large area. Begin your search at the pier facing the water and proceed north along the road until you spot an undamaged tree, which Henry will comment on. Continue along the path until you reach a significant rock, prompting another remark from Henry.

Keep following the path until you arrive at a gravesite positioned in front of a tree. Use your spade to dig up the grave, where you'll uncover the following items:

• Silver Ring
• Marigold x5

Remember, you'll need to provide him with a Fastening Material and pay a substantial fee of 699.5 groschen. Fastening Materials, essential for smithing, can also be purchased from Radovan.

Once repaired, the Broken Axe transforms into the Adorned Axe. To complete the quest, return to Zdenyek the Mouth and share your success. Upon finishing the quest, you can retain the Adorned Axe, which can be used in combat, adding a new weapon to your arsenal.
