There is certainly no lack of giant centipedes around Murky Waters. All our hero has to do is walk (or run) around the area surrounding the village, specifically the triangular area which includes the fairytale ruins, the riverbank (closer to the road than the river) and the (impassible) bridge to the fields. They are also not too difficult to find, or rather, they seem to have no difficulty finding Geralt. Once he has subdued four of them, he can take their carapaces back to the Lakeside cave and collect his reward from the elven craftsman.

Notes

  • Giant centipedes seem to succumb best to Strong attacks and a bit of insectoid oil never goes amiss. They also tend to attack in threes.
  • Geralt can loot Giant Centipede remains for their Chitinous carapaces without having the monsters' bestiary entry.
