How to Start Axe From the Lake in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

To embark on "The Axe From the Lake" quest, make your way to the tavern in Tachov. There, you'll meet an NPC named Zdenyek the Mouth. Engage him in conversation and prompt him to share some informative tidbits. He'll regale you with the tale of a mythical axe submerged in a lake, setting you off on your quest.

How to Find the Axe From the Lake

Before setting out, ensure you have a spade with you, as you'll need it to dig up a grave during the quest. Spades can be found in graveyards or purchased from general traders in settlements.

Follow your objective marker, which will lead you to a large area. Head to the pier facing the water and follow the road north until you spot an undamaged tree, which Henry will comment on. Continue along the path until you reach a large rock, prompting another remark from Henry.

Keep following the path until you encounter a gravesite in front of a tree. Use your spade to dig up the grave, where you'll uncover the following items: a Gemstone, a Silver Ring, five Marigolds, and the Broken Axe.

Repairing the Axe

With the Broken Axe in hand, head to Tachov to find the blacksmith, Radovan. Request his services to repair the axe, but be prepared to provide him with a Fastening Material and 699.5 groschen. You can purchase the Fastening Material from Radovan as well.

Once repaired, the Broken Axe transforms into the Adorned Axe. Conclude the quest by returning to Zdenyek the Mouth and informing him of your success. You can then keep the Adorned Axe for use in combat, adding a powerful weapon to your arsenal.
