Follow this Kingdom Come: Deliverance guide to complete the 'In God's Hands' side quest. Learn how to treat the wounded, gather supplies, and deal with the Custodian.

Alright, so you've stumbled upon the 'In God's Hands' quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance, huh? It kicks off at the Sasau monastery with Johanka, who's really struggling to look after all the sick and wounded refugees from Skalitz. It's just her, Brother Nicodemus, and Brother Elias trying to manage, so they could really use your help. Make sure you've got the First Aid I and II perks – they're super handy for treating everyone properly.

Optional Objectives First!

Before you dive into setting bones, let's knock out some optional stuff. First up, you need to hunt 100 game meat and bring it to the infirmary. There's a good deer hunting spot just north of the monastery. Don't worry if you're not a master hunter; there are plenty of hares around too, and they count as game meat.

Next, you'll want to chat with Brother Nicodemus about improving conditions for the sick. Keep talking to him until your objective updates to 'Try to get supplies from the Custodian'. This guy lives in the house north of the monastery. He's not exactly thrilled to help at first, but you've got a couple of ways to convince him.

You can either pay him directly or use Johanka to bribe him. Whichever route you take, once you've secured those supplies, head back to the refugees.

Tending to the Wounded

Now, let's get to the actual healing. Start with the man who's got a broken leg. You'll need to set it, and Brother Nicodemus and Brother Elias will assist you.

After that, find Hans. He's in a corner and desperately needs bandages – at least ten of them. Once you give them to him, he'll be grateful. You can then ask Brother Nicodemus to patch him up, or if your skill is good enough, you can do it yourself.

Next up is Quarryman Semek, who's feeling pretty rough. He needs a specific remedy: a purple herb called Comfrey. If you don't have one, Brother Nicodemus sells them, or you can just snag one from his workshop shelf. Give Semek the Comfrey and then you'll have to wait a few days to see how he's doing.

Dealing with the Custodian

Once Semek is sorted, a cutscene will play where the Custodian shows up, acting all concerned about Johanka. He'll question your involvement, and you've got three ways to respond: be confrontational, diplomatic, or just do as he says and leave. Be careful here – if you choose to be confrontational, you might end up in prison! A good way to de-escalate is to suggest holding the banquet with the refugees.

More Healing and a Mystery Illness

After that little drama, get back to the sick. The Insomniac needs a Lullaby potion. You can buy one from the apothecary in Rattay, or brew one yourself in Brother Nicodemus' workshop. Give it to him, and he'll be happy for the moment. Just a heads-up, you'll need to give him more potions when you check on him later.

Finally, there's Phillip from Skalitz. He's shaking terribly, but there are no visible wounds. Talk to Johanka; she'll tell you he hid among corpses for days and might have been poisoned. Your lead is Father Simon, who might know a cure. He's in Rovna. You'll need to talk to a villager there to start the 'A Man of the Cloth' quest. Once that's done, Father Simon will teach you how to make the Artemesia Potion needed for Phillip. If you've already done 'A Man of the Cloth', you can just make the potion or buy it from the Rattay apothecary.

Quest Complete!

Once everyone's been treated, go back to Johanka and let her know you've done all you can. She'll thank you, and the quest will wrap up. Nice job!
