The Stolen Throne quest walkthrough
The Stolen Throne objectives:
The masquerade is at Vernworth Hall, but we’d recommend taking formal clothes from Allard’s Estate first! |Image credit:Rock Paper Shotgun/Capcom
Head into Vernworth Castle and enterVernworth Hallon the right. Immediately turn left and head around the outside circular hallway until you reach the back wall opposite the front door. There are two doors leading to side-rooms at the back, and you can feel free to explore them. But once you’re done, go to the centre of that back wall and you’ll notice an inset section of wall, which is practically screaming “secret passage” to anyone who isn’t an NPC.
The hidden passage is directly in between the two doors on the back wall of Vernworth Hall. Push through it and then follow the path to complete the quest. |Image credit:Rock Paper Shotgun/Capcom
Push against this inset section of wall and you’ll enter a secret room. The room doesn’t actually have much of interest in it, but it leads out via a balcony into the neighbouringRose Chateau Bordelrie, a premium brothel.
Once you enter the Bordelrie, you’ll meet withWilhelmina, who runs the place. A series of cutscenes will ensue, during which you get the opportunity to do some snooping through apeepholeto find out more about the story of Vernworth’s false Arisen. We won’t spoil anything here, but it’s juicy stuff.
After that, Wilhelmina will give you aMyrmecoleon Cardthat allows you to come back at any time, and sends you off to report back toBrantat the Stardrop Inn. Do that, and you’ll get a 6,500g payout, plus a Wakestone Shard.
