A roadwarden's travel guide to the unnamed peninsula

These are some notes I have taken while playing, which may be of help to those who feel overwhelmed in their first playthrough. Includes: The game map & points of interest, guide for certain points of interest, the settlements, Selling, purchases and services guide, alchemy ingredient locations, and guides for some of the quests. Guide contains spoilers.

Map Guide

This is a general map guide showing points of interests, starting from the southern crossroads where your journey begins, travelling clockwise around the peninsula loop as the game advises you to. This portion of the guide will not tell you specifically what to do in each area, only where things are.

Location Guide (non-settlements)

The ruined settlement (Steep House ruins)

• Southwest field – cursed soil, identifiable as mage or with plant bought from Eudocia
  
• Southwest – free fish trap
  
• Southeast – a single free crossbow quarrel
  
• Main Square – Pyrrhos the scavenger is taking refuge in the village center, gives a quest to come back to escort him to safety; Pelt of the North is safer, Thais doesn’t like him. He’s also the metal thief that Gale Rocks is looking for, can threaten him to give what he stole to you, after you escort him.
  
• Northeast – Goblin nest, can hire the hunters at Pelt of the North (Dalit) to clear
  
• Northwest – tools to open the northern gate
  
• Northern Gate (from the inside) – can be opened to speed up travel past this area permanently

You can only explore a couple of the interior village at a time because the curse makes you sick.

The Beholder – Tree sacred to local pagans

• Takes blood sacrifices, Eudocia’s spirit rocks, your own pneuma as a mage, and many other magical items/alchemical mixtures
  
• Once enough is given, gives fruit which is used to cure plague in old pagos
  
• Cutting the root goes against druidic beliefs, but you can use it to barter for dragon horn with green mountain tribe, or just gift it to them for goodwill.
  
• Inputting Cut and then sparing it helps with the Gentle Heart achievement.

Elder's Cave, a lone druid in the southwest corner of the map

• Called “forest speaker” or “speaker of the forest”
  
• Gives quest to bring him a fish from a Gale Rocks fisherman after he trusts you a bit
  
• Can talk to him about the plague in Old Pagos; later heals the plague after you obtained the Beholder fruit as he instructed
  
• Free shelter & alchemical station after you cure the plague
  
• Gives you info on the green mountain tribe if you are aware of them, and if he likes you enough

The Ford

• Can make insect repellant at alchemy station as scholar, or buy it from thyrsus (Warlock & White Marsh gatekeeper)

Northern ruined shelter

• Inspect mushroom (can tell gatherers at Foggy’s Lake), bushes (bronze axe head), clean up the shelter for coins from Creeks quest

Hunter's Cabin

• Input Dodge as first command when you encounter the spider, gather silk for Howler's Dell tailor

Watchtower (basically the Eastern Crossroads)

• Key found at Gale rock headwoman, Old Pagos, or report to Tulia Asterion’s death to get his belongings – a key is one of them
  
• Can create an insect repellant as scholar to make shelter more hospitable, or buy from thyrsus
  Eastern secluded residence

Eastern secluded residence

• Inhabited by Eudocia, the Enchantress, and her golems
  
• Gargoyle is basically the doorbell
  
• Gives bronze rods quest, then asks you to find her snake bait flowers for her

Dolmen

• Look for trapdoor (health potion)

Griffon's nest

• Come early in the morning (e.g. sleep at Green Mountain Tribe) to inspect the nest to collect spear and a dead egg (can be sold at foggy's).

The Giant (monument)

• Kneel & pray (ask the elder druid or Green Mountain tribe on how to pray in the old tongue if you're not druidic in faith)

Heart of The Forest

• Spider leading to Bandit's Hideout-> Observes string, eyes, web, legs, movement, etc (Spider’s dead), walk back to cairn and return to spider if you're having difficulty bypassing it, the game should note that it hasn't moved since you last left
  
• You can find snakebait flowers and herbs south of the cairn, be wary of creature attacks from the ground
  
• every potential encounter in HotW is not listed here, check quest guide section for some of the more noteworthy encounters.

High Island (northwest of peninsula, original home of the green mountain tribe)

• Reachable by boat from gale rocks or fishing hamlet west of Howler’s den
  
• Reaching the forbidden island without permission from The Green Mountain Tribe makes them hostile towards you.
  
• The entire journey through High island is not listed here, check the quest guide section

Settlement Guide

Here are all the major settlements in the game. the [] next to some characters indicates the suggested interaction option to choose when available.

Howler’s Dell

• Thais, mayor [friendly/playful]
  
• Eryx, innkeeper. Food & rations relatively expensive, but paying for shelter has its benefits to health, hunger and appearance.
  
• Akakios, trader (prices improve after matchmaking his niece). GIves quest to obtain a healing potion. Reward for healing potion can be increased if you looked at its sale price at Pelt of the North
  
• Bion, Tailor , spider silk from hunter's cabin can be given to her for coins or a free upgrade to your gambeson
  
• Elpis, Druidess [vulnerable], will call for you after you are asked to clear the path to the fishing hamlet

The Mayor asks you to report back information from around the peninsula(spying), eventually asks you to clear the path to the fishing hamlet. can secure diplomatic relations for guild after doing enough for her, along with a letter of appreciation which makes sleeping at the inn and tailor free at Howler's Dell.

The mayor will hate you for curing Old Pagos, so time that for after obtaining your letter for the guild, and after doing most available work for them to balance out the hate. Also, speak with conviction when defending why you gave the beholder fruit to Old Pagos instead of her. At worst you will no longer be able to stay in Howler's Dell, at best your bonuses from the letter of appreciation is nullified.

If you decide to seek justice against Thais for Steep House ruins, be prepared with as much informational ammunition as possible, and to lose Howler's Dell as a place to sleep (you can, but you'll be beaten up every time for massive stat decreases).

Old Pagos & monastery

• Old Pagos is plagued by mysterious disease, you can talk to the elder druid, and cure them after obtaining the beholder fruit. If you are in good enough relations with Gale Rocks, you can convince them to send supplies to help Old Pagos.
  
• Can spread news about their plague to other settlements, presumably gaining favor from each settlement, then once again with news after you cure them
  
• Monastery Gives quest to obtain Quills from Eudocia and deliver it to them; also gives quest to study Eudocia's golems
  
• Most of the content in both areas are locked until you cure the plague, but you can secure diplomatic relationships with both as your reward afterwards.

White Marshes

• Thyrsus – Peat Mage [distanced], opens the creeper obstacle to White Marshes, will eventually open it for free if you ally with him to convince Orentius to cease necromancy; sells alchemical mixtures which can be used by non-scholars and a grappling hook; has quest to retrieve wand from Howler's Dell druids
  
• Helvius – Mayor [intimidate], tehnically a trader for some things (quarrels, metals) but hardly worth it
  
• Orentius – Priest [vulnerable], can be talked down from necromancy if you have acquired enough information to argue with. Requires convincing Thyrsus to sneak in an audience or doing enough favors for Helvius.

Gale Rocks

Has a text input system to look for characters and points of interest because the villagers aren't exactly friendly. The headwoman is initially distant and won't even give you quests, but you can eventually get her village to stop protecting Glaucia's Bandits and open dipomatic relations with the guild.

Seek:

• Severina, Village Headwoman [distanced]
  
• Photios, fisher – usually found north in the piers; the elder druid asks for an empress carp form him, Photios gives quest to obtain one of Eudocia's spirit rocks for him, which he can be talked out of.
  
• Phoibe, Photios' daughter to ask about her condition for Photios' quest
  
• Petronius, Gossiper (can be paid to direct you to points of interest, unnecessary if you already know or are using an external guide)
  
• Navica, boatmaker - one of the two ways to obtain a boat to get to high island
  
• Glaucia family

Sellers & Services

• Porcia; Cook
  
• Rufina, Tailor
  
• Tatius, Weaponsmith, Armorer
  
• Aquila, Bath man
  
• Fulvia, Room keeper

Local Artisans

It is part of your main quest to find out how the city guild can trade with locals

• Iuno, digger (mason, builder), rewards you for clearing the old tunnel
  
• Coopers (carpenters); Domitia (head Carpenter)
  
• Albus (salter)
  
• Smokery

others

• Florus (fletcher) [can ask about arrow from southeastern woods, not mandatory for that information][as mage you can reassure that his craft does result in mildly magical arrows]
  
• Priest, you can pray there for no actual benefit except to express your devotion to the Wright (might help with "The Faithfull" achievement)

Creeks

• Elah, Carpenter [friendly/playful], gives rewards for clearing the eastern roads
  
• Efren, Hunter [friendly/playful], gives quest to find 3 missing hunters
  
• Old Hava(Erith, the highwaywoman), sells roast chicken (1db) & fish trap (2db)
  
  Finding the three hunters and clearing the eastern roads will give you enough goodwill to secure diplomatic relations for the guild. You can have a house as free shelter here afterwards, as they accept you as one of them. Bathing here is free at all times and gets you pretty clean.

The Green mountain Tribe

• accessible by removing bushes from eastern stone bridge, after learning about the tribe
  
  
• Requires you to give them a gift in order to speak with their leader, and then again to gain permission to visit their homeland
  
  
• Choose the vulnerable greeting option: “I am a Freedom Seeker, Friend of the speakers of the forest”, need to learn this from the elder druid, after he trusts you enough to talk about the Green Mountain Tribe
  
  
• Reaching the forbidden island without permission from The Green Mountain Tribe makes them hostile towards you.
  
  
• Reporting back after visiting High Island with their permission leads to the option to gain the support of the Green Mountain tribe, they will speak with city messengers

Other Shelters (non-settlement)

Here are other points of interests such as inns where you can or eventually can find shelter.

Pelt of the North Inn

• Iason – innkeeper [distanced]
  
• Dalit – Huntress, has knowledge on beasts
  
• Armorer - cheap Gambeson repairs, though his skills have limits

you can buy the berry hook from Iason for 1db with best dialogue option, and sell it at foggy's for 3db
save scum on Dalit's wagers for free coins, + it gradually reduces cost of her services (knowledge, goblin nest clearing, party member for high island)

This is the best place to purchase rations, and a decent place to sleep.

Foggy Lake

• Foggy – Innkeeper [friendly/playful]
  
• Ilan & Tzvi – foragers
  
• Caius - used to be one of Tulia’s men, rambles about visions
  
  Foggy initially asks for news from Old Pagos, then eventually will ask to enquire about a deal with Pelt of the North, also a ale cask delivery to White Marshes.
  
  The foragers can hire you to deal with capturing a bird in a weeks time, make sure you have shield at least by then, perhaps others tools as well. You can tell the foragers about mushrooms in the dusk fox shelter.
  
  This is the best place for food, 4 meals for 1db, with the caveat that they need to be eaten on-site, unlike rations.
  
  Sleeping here is not the most comfortable, but potentially free if you choose it

Eudocia’s Residence

• Can eventually use Eudocia's place as free shelter after you do enough for her.
  
• Eudocia, bronze rods quest, snake bait flower quest; some quests from the monastery involves Eudocia
  
• sells spirit rocks (4db at best price)
  
• Is from Old Pagos, bringing news about the plague and curing it gives relationship boons
  
• You can eventually convince her to work in the cities similar to how you obtain diplomatic relations with settlements. You need to do enough quests and have enough information (like how the monastery actually hates her).
  
• If you give her snake bait flowers to complete the questline, she will succumb to the addiction and die in the epilogue

The Watchtower

• You can sleep here after opening with key or breaking down the door
  
• You can bug bomb the place to improve it as a shelter

Elder's Cave

• The cave becomes open as free shelter after you cure the Old Pagos plague, there is a free alchemy station to use, and a river nearby to bathe

Fishing Hamlet

• Aegida – Thais’ runaway daughter, a huntress, hides here. You can either keep her existence a secret from Thais, or reveal her to Thais. Keeping her secret allows you to use her boat to get to High Island, and recruit her in the High Island journey.

Selling Items

Because I'm too lazy to create a table with steam formatting, here is an image of a table of sell-able items at different traders. Note that prices fluctuate based on how much goodwill you’ve earned from the inn/settlement, as well as on how high your appearance stat is.



Dead griffon egg, can be sold at Foggy’s for 7db, howlers den for 4db, pelt for 3db

Valens in White Marshes Buys food items, but not profitably; white marshes is generally not a good buyer. Iron scraps can be sold at the same or higher price with other buyers at high enough goodwill with them.

Remember that some items might be better gifted to the Green Mountain Tribe for goodwill in order to get audience, and then permission to travel to high island

• Tool of Destruction helps (magic chisel from monastery, upgraded by Eudocia)[Credits to DeepSpaceTrash]

Asterion

• Put him out of his misery, collect loot, and return home

[Amber Dragonlord]

Huh. I could understand if it depended on telling successful lies to tell advanced ones well and to be distrusted if you fail to lie successfully. Maybe it works both ways: you can tell bigger lies if you do it frequently, but people will still doubt your character in interactions requiring trust?

[T0RM3NT]

There is no xp for lying, there's just a threshold number for lies upon which the game marks you as a liar (an accomplishment icon you can mouse over, and a steam achievement). It might count against you when you ask others to trust you (e.g. appealing to your character when trying to open diplomatic relationship between the guild and villages), but I can't say for certain because I just lied enough to get the achievement and then loaded a previous save to get under the threshold.

[Amber Dragonlord]

Any tips on how lying works? Is it just to reflect the character, is it about how many lies might come back to bite you, or is it actually an xp meter where you need practice with small/safe lies to pass bigger ones later? And if so, how does that work?

[KaliYama]

iron scraps also helps with the high island beastfolk alternate path

[T0RM3NT]

Added some stuff and modified it a bit. This was never supposed to be a complete wiki, but I hope every one who came looking for info found something helpful. Probably gonna stop editing this all together, I've replayed the game start to finish too many times.

Feel free to use the comment section to ask questions, add further info, or for whatever you like.

[Zar]

Nice outline, when are you going to release the complete version? (just kidding, this is great)

[Zedd Muddlefinger]

Nice job!!

[T0RM3NT]

Added spoiler warning to the overview, spoiler boxes over some of the text that might be spoilers, and the unicorn bit.

[Zedd Muddlefinger]

Hey, nice guide, although you might want to point out it contains a lot of spoilers.
