Uncover the Secrets of "The Axe From the Lake" in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 offers a wealth of optional side quests, and "The Axe From the Lake" is definitely one worth pursuing. This guide provides a step-by-step walkthrough to completing this rewarding task.

Initiating the Quest:

To begin, visit the Tachov tavern and speak with Zdenyek the Mouth. Engage him in conversation, prompting him to share something insightful. He'll then reveal details about a legendary axe hidden within the lake, setting your quest in motion.

Locating the Axe:

Before embarking on your search, equip a spade. These are commonly found in graveyards or can be purchased from general traders. Your objective marker covers a large area; begin at the pier overlooking the water. Follow the path northward, noting Henry's comments upon reaching an undamaged tree and a large rock.

Continue along the path until you discover a gravesite near a tree. Dig it up to unearth the following:

• A gemstone silver ring
• Five marigolds
• A broken axe

Restoring the Axe:

Take the broken axe to Radovan, the blacksmith in Tachov. He'll repair it for you, but you'll need to provide a fastening material and 699.5 groschen. Fastening materials are typically available for purchase from Radovan himself.

Once repaired, the broken axe transforms into the Adorned Axe. Return to Zdenyek to complete the quest and claim your prize – the Adorned Axe, ready for use in battle.
