1. Craft a plague doctor's outfit: I ran into a woman in the northern side of Thornhill’s beggars’ quarter, who said she was in the service of an esteemed apothecary studying the recent plague that washed over Thornhill. According to her, the apothecary might be in need of help.However, as he seems to have locked himself indoors to study a plagued corpse, I will need to acquire a protective plague doctor’s outfit. It may be necessary to craft such a thing for myself, but perhaps the tailor near Thornhill’s Beggar’s Gate can instruct me how.
   1. Having spoken to the tailor, I've been given patterns for a special plague doctor's outfit. Now all I need is a tailor's workbench, and the materials of course.¹⁾
2. Speak with Apothecary Sven: Through the careful use of materials and a steady hand, I have created a protective outfit befit for a real plague doctor. Perhaps now I may be able to approach the apothecary in his house, on the street leading north in Thornhill’s beggar’s quarter.
3. Gather Blistering Plague Pus: The apothecary north in Thornhill’s beggars' quarter asked me to seek out corpse piles southeast near the wall, by the side of the street at the so called ‘’plague corner’’.Before destroying the bodies, the apothecary asked me to use his sample jar to collect plague pus from the corpses for him to study.
4. Burn the corpse pyres: I found the plague bodies in eastern Thornhill and gathered the sample of plague pus for the doctor, as instructed. Now to the more satisfying part, I’ll need a torch to set these pyres on fire.
5. Speak with Apothecary Sven: I should return the sample of plague pus to apothecary Sven in northern Thornhill’s beggars’ quarter.
6. Break inside the plagued house and gather an air sample: At Thornhill’s plague corner stands a house, boarded up and marked by Xs, which the apothecary believes to be the point of origin for the plague.He believes this house continues to present a threat, that it could yet spark another wave of infections unless somehow purified.In order to prepare a cleansing agent, apothecary Sven still needs to perform more studies. He asked me to procure an air sample into one of his jars, from inside the house.Since the house is boarded up, I may need a heavy warhammer to gain access – those are always known to break barriers.
7. Speak with Apothecary Sven: I broke into the house on the ‘Plague Corner’ and gathered a sample of the infectious air. I should return with it to apothecary Sven, residing in northern Thornhill’s beggars’ quarter.
8. Gather 5 Soothing Mallow: Once I had brought both a sample of plague pus and infectious air to the plague doctor, upon examination, he determined a flower named Soothing Mallow may present the solution to the plague purification.Having spoken to a druid – Arren, perhaps? - the plague doctor had learned of Soothing Mallow growing on the cliffs by the river to the southeast, between Thornhill and Fenwater Village.
9. Bring 5 Soothing Mallow to Apothecary Sven: As instructed, I found the Soothing Mallow growing on the cliffs by the river to the southeast, between Thornhill and Fenwater Village. However, upon reaching the grove, the strangest thing happened!Out of nowhere, without provocation, I was senselessly attacked by a bloodthirsty rogue actor only identifiable as Kyler Plair!I’ve never heard of such a man before, but it became pretty clear to me he’s the sort who only wants to watch the world burn.Anyway, I should return to apothecary Sven with 5 of the Soothing Mallow herbs.
10. Light the incense stands in the plagued house: Having acquired the Soothing Mallow herbs for Sven, he perfected them into an incense to be burned at the plagued house that remains at the so-called Plague Corner.
11. Board up the plagued house: I’ve lit the incense and its fumes should work to purify the house. However, Sven told me this will take some time. It remains essential to seal the entrance to the house.I should find some planks to board up the house again.
12. Return to Apothecary Sven: It is done; I left the incense to burn inside the house. Its fumes ought to purify the remaining plague in time.All that's left is to return to Sven's house in northern Thornhill’s beggars’ quarter.
