The Dragon’s Lair is a side quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 that sends you on a search for legendary bones hidden in the Kuttenberg region. Monk Slava needs your help, but you’re not the only one looking for these remains. Gerhard, a scholar, has also sent his own men to retrieve them.
This guide covers everything you need to find the bones, handle rival claimants, and choose the best outcome for the quest.
Step 1: Speak With Monk Slava
To begin the quest, find Monk Slava in Bylany. He’ll tell you about rumors of a mythical creature’s remains and ask you to deliver a message to the abbot.
Where to find Slava:
He’s located near the small monastery in Bylany, usually inside or around the church.
Step 2: Deliver the Message to the Abbot
The abbot is just outside Kuttenberg City at a small church. Travel there and hand over the message.
Optional: Speak With Gerhard
While at the church, talk to Gerhard, a scholar.
He wants the bones for himself and will offer you 275 Groschen if you bring them to him instead of Slava.
He also hired someone else to retrieve the bones, so time is important.
After delivering the message, return to Slava in Bylany.
Step 3: Talk to Vashek
After reporting back to Slava, you’ll meet Leopold, Gerhard’s hired man.
Persuade or intimidate him (Very Hard check) to get him to leave. If you fail, he’ll remain in the area.
Now, find Vashek, a villager who knows where the bones are.
You must pass a Speech check or pay him 200 Groschen for the location details.
Step 4: Find the Dragon Bones
Vashek’s directions will lead you to the western end of a stream, southwest of Bylany.
How to get there:
Head to the woodcutter’s camp southwest of the village.
Follow the stream westward until Henry starts talking (this means you’re on the right track).
Look for a dig spot near the end of the stream.
Make sure you bring a spade to dig up the bones.
Step 5: Deal With Leopold
Once you dig up the bones, Leopold will appear and demand them.
You have three options:
Intimidate him – Requires a skill check. If you succeed, he’ll leave.
Give him the bones – Ends the quest immediately, leaving you empty-handed.
Fight him – If intimidation fails or you refuse to hand over the bones, Leopold and his men attack.
Leopold and his guards aren’t very strong, so you should have no trouble defeating them.
Step 6: Decide What to Do With the Bones
Now that you have the Dragon Bones, you must choose who to give them to:
Option 1: Give the Bones to Slava (Bylany)
Return to Slava in Bylany and hand over the bones.
You can pass a Speech check to lie and give only part of the bones, but this doesn’t provide extra benefits.
Outcome: Increased reputation with the church but no money.
Option 2: Give the Bones to Gerhard (Church Near Kuttenberg)
Find Gerhard at the church or nearby inn.
Hand over the bones, and he’ll pay you 275 Groschen.
Outcome: You gain money, but no reputation boost.
Quest Completion
Once you hand over the bones to either Slava or Gerhard, the quest immediately ends.
This completes the Dragon’s Lair side quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2.
