Blindingly Obvious

Main StoryNovigrad
It is frightening to think how this story might have ended had Triss and Geralt not arrived at the bathhouse in the nick of time. A dimeritium collar had kept Philippa trapped in owl form, but somehow she had managed to free herself from it, revert to her true self, overcome her guards and start tearing the bathhouse apart. Dodging her furious blasts, Geralt was finally able to corner her and convince her he and Triss did not want to harm her - in fact, they needed her help. Though Dijkstra was vehemently opposed to letting the sorceress go, he ultimately realized resistance was futile in the face of Geralt's ironclad logic. And so Philippa Eilhart regained her freedom and joined the offensive against Eredin and his Red Riders.

Choices & consequences

Triss's hunt for Philippa ends with Dijkstra blocking your path. How you get past him is the single gate for the alternate political ending.

How do you get past Dijkstra?

  • Bribe him with intel on Emhyr

    Unlocks Reason of State — the plot to assassinate Radovid that can swing the game's political ending.

  • Break his leg again

    You shove past, but Reason of State never unlocks — that path is closed.
