Walkthrough of the quest “An Unsettling Encounter” in Dragon's Dogma 2

How to start a task

Before you can access it, you will need to complete 1-2 Brant quests from the following list:

• Prisoner Lawyer
• Disa's intrigues
• Cleaning up monsters
• The Stolen Throne (it is recommended to complete it to show the kiss scene with Wilhelmina)

After completing each of the above missions, speak to Brant again and wait until he has a dialogue option: "Tell Rumors About Allard" . He will ask you to examine the minister's chambers to find out if he is participating in the regent's conspiracy.

How to get to the minister's chambers

Wait until nightfall (take a nap on a bench or sleep in a hotel) and then head to the castle grounds, located in the southern part of the city. Here you will meet a guard named Sonya, who will take you to a side door through which you can enter the castle.

Inside there is a chest in which you can find Travel Armor (if you haven't already done so). You can wear it for camouflage, but the guards did not pay attention to us, even when we were in ordinary clothes. Next, exit the guardhouse and immediately turn right into a spacious hall. Don't linger in it, continuing to run forward to the other side. In just a couple of seconds you will see a stone staircase ahead - climb it to the second floor of the castle.

Having gone upstairs, turn into the left passage and run forward along the corridor, without turning anywhere. Soon you will hear voices coming from the room ahead. Hide behind the column on the left and wait until the minister and his bodyguard leave the room. The pictures below show the correct location.

How to search Allard's chambers

Enter the room the people just came out of, then immediately walk along the left wall to find a secret passage leading to a secret room. The picture below shows the corresponding door. After going inside, take from the table a letter with the coat of arms of Battal, which you will need to take to Brant.

However, as soon as you exit the hidden room, you will hear Allard returning to his chambers, but he is stopped for a moment by Sven, giving you the opportunity to escape. You can try to run out through the door and escape from the chase, but in this case you will probably miss the meeting with Wilhelmina and will not be able to continue your romance with her, so jump out the window.

Once on the ledge, do not jump to the ground, otherwise you will get hurt or even die, so jump onto the awning of the cart below to avoid taking damage. Get down from it to the ground. Next, turn left and go through the passage so that a cut-scene will start immediately.

If you have previously met Wilhelmina as part of the quest "The Stolen Throne" (and completed other Brant quests; perhaps not necessary), then this time she will kiss you. If you are meeting her for the first time, then right now you will receive from her Myrmekoleon map, which allows you to use the services of the Rose Estate brothel.

Next, return to Brant at the Stardrop and give him the letter you obtained. This will bring the task to an end. As a reward, you will receive 1200 experience points, 5.5 thousand gold and an Accumulation Ring.
