Downwarren massacre?
So I just went back to Downwarren and the entire town was massacred by wraiths. Was this as a result of some choice I made in the story line. I dont see any explanation for why it happened. Were the crones no longer protecting this village because we staged the attack from there to get Anna back?

yeah the witches quest had two option, either kill that tree heart demon or set it free, if you killed it, witches will eat those kids but anna and barons lives, if you set the demon free he kills the witches free the kids but anna dies and village get murdered by the demon

Wow what a game...

Every choice has consequences OP,don't feel bad about it.You did what you thought was best,truth be told there isn't really a ''good'' option in most quests.

On the bright side,a group of orphants are now safe in Novigrad.

At least the children are save. There are no right or wrong decisions. And the people in the village were stupid...

Im not so sure the kids are actually safe - the way the spirit words it "only I can *set them free*". depending on the spirits mindset, saving them could have an entirely different context from what you are I think, heh.

It's definately a bastard of a choice though, that's for sure. :)

The kids are safe.. you'll see them in a school later in the game

Killing the spirit tree is clearly the better chocie here though.. Poor Baron kills himself ;'(
btw I myself saved the tree ( tend to save as many npc's as I can )

I'm pretty sure those arn't the kids, because I saw them in the school building even though I chose to kill the treeheart. By 'freeing', the spirit meant simply getting the children away from the crones. They probably ended up in the swamp eaten by necrophages.

They'll show up in Novigrad not too much further down the main storyline. There is a note in the house they are in that reads something like "the kids just showed up at the doorstep!". Also since they have the same names as the orphans.. definitely the orphan kids.

Theres a third option. If you do it before the Crones send you, then the children are saved, and anna/baron survives, least thats what im told, Im a bit hazy, I was drunk when i finished that mission.

Why the hell would you believe some evil spirit?

Advice for beginners, never believe any kind of monsters in Witcher (trolls are exception, though). You're just asking for trouble.
