Free Mert the Miller from Jail in The Blood of Dawnwalker – Here's How

Ever found yourself staring at a locked cell, wondering how to bust someone out without causing a riot? In The Blood of Dawnwalker, Mert the Miller lands himself in hot water, and it's up to you to spring him from the clink in Stoneward Post. But it's not as simple as picking a lock and sneaking away – there's a bit of finesse involved.

First things first, you need to locate Mert. He's being held in the jail area of Stoneward Post, which is a militarized zone. You'll want to approach carefully, because guards are everywhere and they don't take kindly to strangers poking around. If you're spotted, you'll trigger a fight, and that could make things messy for Mert.

Your best bet is to go stealthy. Look for a way to get close to the cell without being seen. There might be a guard patrol pattern you can time, or a shadowy corner to duck into. Once you're within talking distance, you'll get a prompt to speak with Mert. He'll fill you in on why he's locked up – it's a misunderstanding, but the guards aren't listening to reason.

Now, here's the tricky part: you can't just unlock the door and walk him out. You need to find the jailer's key. That means scouting the area for a key ring or a chest. Sometimes, the key is on a guard's belt, so you might need to do a sneaky pickpocket. If that's not your style, you could also look for a way to cause a distraction – like setting off an alarm elsewhere – to lure guards away, then slip in and grab the key.

Once you have the key, head back to Mert's cell and unlock it. But don't think you're in the clear yet. You'll need to escort Mert out of the post without raising the alarm. Keep an eye on guard patrols and use the environment to your advantage – maybe there's a side exit or a sewer grate that leads to safety. Stick close to Mert and be ready to fight if things go south, but a clean escape is always better.

After you get Mert out, he'll be grateful and might offer you a reward or a bit of information that could help your journey. Saving him might also affect your reputation in the area, so it's worth doing if you want to stay on good terms with the locals.
