A ghost is haunting a village and the people would like you to get rid of it. Talk to the townspeople to learn about the ghost to gather all the details you can and then go out to investigate. You’ll soon find footprints and torn clothing. If you follow the trail, you will soon come across a bloody scene with a knife and a letter. Pick both up and read the letter.

Sounds like star-crossed lovers crossed the wrong man. Head back into town to learn where all the kids sneak off to. Go off to find the secret place marked on your map. If it is day time, meditate to the night before you approach and "activate" the fire.

RECOMMENDED ITEMS:

• Spectre Oil
• Thunderbolt
• Swallow

This fight with Jenny is very similar to fighting the Noonwraith in White Orchard. Right away cast the Yrden sign to throw down a magic trap. This gives the wraith a physical form to hit when she is inside the circle. Keep her in the circle and attack as much as possible. Get into the rhythm of hitting her two or three times, then rolling away to avoid taking damage. Don't rush it. You have to attack, retreat, lay down a new magic trap, attack, retreat, and so on.

After losing a certain amount of health, Jenny will blind Geralt and summon three clones. The longer these extra wraiths are in the field, the more health Jenny will regain. You can either quickly hit them each one time to dispel them and bring back the real Jenny o’ the Woods -- or simply run away for about five seconds and she will turn back on her own. This will also allow you time to heal. Continue this with this strategy until the Nightwraith has been defeated.

Grab proof that you got rid of the wraith and take it back to the town for your reward.
