WALKTHROUGH: CHAPTER 5 OF 8

Chapter 5: Games at Court

Taking French Leave to The Feast

Chapter Overview

Quests: Taking French Leave, The King’s Gambit, The Feast (18–20).
Opens: The court, the church and the nobles’ games.
Watch for: Die Another Day is saving the brother as Godwin in The Feast.

1. French leave

Leaving without goodbye, and what it costs.

  • 1

    Taking French Leave

    A quiet exit that is not quiet. Stealth pays here.

  • 2

    The King’s Gambit

    Die Another Day is not here but in the next quest, The Feast.

2. The banquet

The knives under the table.

  • 1

    The Feast

    As Godwin, the priest, save his brother Christopher Oderin: Die Another Day is the trophy, and it is missable inside the quest. A banquet with more politics than food. Say the right things, eat the wrong ones (unless Lent), and watch who leaves early.

3. Fights and trophies

  • The King’s Gambit: Henry’s quest, and not a fight: he gets into the town council dressed as a royal servant.
  • The Feast: Godwin’s fight, and there is no avoiding it: von Bergow’s men storm the fortress once the wine is fetched. Keep the brother alive.

4. Before you move on

Cross-checked

Cross-checked on 17 September 2026 against PowerPyx’s main-quest walkthrough and trophy roadmap (the quest order, the two points of no return and the quest-bound trophies) and PCGamesN’s quest list; the route is the guides’, not from a playthrough. What is still unverified is the only thing reading cannot settle — nobody here has played it. Re-checked on 1 October 2026 against EliteGuias, Vandal and Fextralife: the fight and the brother belong to The Feast, which cannot be got through without a fight; The King’s Gambit is Henry getting into the council.
