Kingdom Come 2: Canker Cure Guide

Early in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, the "Canker" side quest becomes available after completing "The Jaunt." This quest offers a chance to acquire a mace and some Groschen. Here's how to complete it:

Picking Up the "Canker" Side Quest

To begin, speak with Gules in Semine. Conveniently, you can initiate this quest during Lord Semine and Agnes's wedding, while Gules is enjoying a drink. Alternatively, find him on patrol in Semine. Ask about his former bandit gang and offer your assistance in eliminating them. Canker is the first target.

Finding and Killing Canker

Accepting the quest marks Canker's location on your map, north of Nebakov Mill. Be prepared for potential ambushes from bandits along the path. Choose your approach: stealth, combat, or a hasty retreat. While these bandits aren't overly challenging, skirmishes can drain your health before the main quest encounter.

Canker's camp is nestled within the mountains, easily missed due to a narrow passage. Similar to accessing the Hermit's house in "Wedding Crashers," prepare for a fight before entering, as several bandits will accompany Canker. Some bandits may flee depending on the order you eliminate them, but thorough combat is recommended. Canker himself doesn't run, ensuring a successful completion of this objective.

Completing the Quest and Returning to Gules

After defeating Canker and the other bandits, loot Canker's body. You must acquire the Light Mace, though other loot is available. Return to Gules to finish the quest.

Following the completion of "Canker," wait a full in-game day before starting the next quest in this series, "Handsome Charlie." Speak with Gules again to proceed.
