Uncover the secrets of "The Axe From the Lake" in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2! This guide provides a comprehensive walkthrough to completing this rewarding side quest.

Initiating the Quest:

Begin your adventure by visiting the Tachov tavern and engaging with Zdenyek the Mouth. Initiate conversation and choose the option to ask him for informative details. He'll reveal the tale of a legendary axe hidden within the lake, setting you on your quest.

Locating the Axe:

Before embarking on your journey to the objective marker, equip a spade. These can be found in graveyards or purchased from general traders. The objective marker covers a large area; begin at the pier overlooking the water. Follow the path north, past an undamaged tree (Henry will comment on it), and continue to a large rock (another comment from Henry will follow).

Repairing the Axe:

To restore the axe, seek out blacksmith Radovan in Tachov. He'll require a fastening material and a substantial 699.5 groschen to repair it. You can usually purchase the fastening material from Radovan himself. Upon completion of the repair, you'll receive the "Adorned Axe."

Quest Completion:

Return to Zdenyek the Mouth and report the successful repair of the axe to complete the quest. The Adorned Axe is yours to keep and use in combat.
