The Suffering of Young Francois

The Suffering of Young Francois is a treasure hunt quest in the Blood and Wine expansion. It begins when Geralt inspects the body of a hanged man at a cottage south of the Fort Astre Ruins.

Journal entry

 * Wandering about the primeval forest that covered the duchy's frontier, the witcher made a discovery most macabre. Deep in the forest, a small hut. Alongside the hut, a tree. Upon the tree, a hanged man. On the ground directly beneath the corpse lay a journal.


 * Geralt read it, and all became clear. An unhappy, unrequited love had pushed the young man to commit suicide. Ah, I know so many stories that echo this one… Yet this one differed from the others in that evil powers were involved. The journal also mentioned a stash of buried jewels. So Geralt resolved to learn more and directed his steps towards the estate the diary described.


 * Geralt explored the Cutterin residence and found the treasure mentioned in the journal. Content with this surprising find, he set off in search of new challenges.

Walkthrough

 * Read the notes.
 * Find the jewels (you'd need to fight a spriggan that took over Cutterin Manor).
 * You can also find Charlotte's diary on her body in the cart.
