From the Cradle to the Grave is a task from l'Owcrey at Rotten Willow Tavern: retrieve the Bone Cradle from the Burial Cave and investigate Venemist. Defeat the Manticore directly or use the clues to prepare the Essence of Deliverance and lift the curse. Combat, delivery and recovery choices affect rewards and later interactions.
Quest flow
Select a node for its entry conditions. At 02, optionally take preparation route A before 03. At 03 choose B1 or B2, then continue to 04. For loss or refusal at 05, see route C.

A: preparing the cure
Enter from 02 and return to 03 after collecting the essence; direct defeat can skip this route.
C1: report a loss
Enter from 05 when reporting without the cradle; then choose C2 or C3 according to whether the penalty has occurred.
C2: timely recovery
Recover before the C1 penalty and return to the normal reward at 05; do not continue through C3.
C3: return after the penalty
Enter after C1 expires or after refusal at 05; this is a separate recovery outcome.
目次
Acceptance and investigation
01 Accept from l'Owcrey
Find l'Owcrey at Rotten Willow Tavern. First access checks whether A Matter of Faith has ended (this state check also includes a failed record), and requires the quest perk provided by Amity or higher reputation with Rotten Willow (at least 4000). He must also be available for quest dialogue, and this task's briefing must not already be completed. Ending the prerequisite alone does not guarantee immediate access.
An already active task also passes the prerequisite-task part of this entry check; the reputation perk, briefing state and character availability are still required.
Ask about Venemist, the cave, the relic and the reward, then accept. This updates the camp scene at the Burial Cave while preserving whether you had already discovered the location; acceptance does not automatically reveal an undiscovered marker.
↑ フローに戻る02 Reach the cave and investigate
Travel to the Burial Cave; entering its interior advances the exploration stage. The camp contains written clues left by Venemist. To investigate a cure, obtain and read them, then take them to l'Owcrey for discussion.
For disenchantment, take route A here and return to 03 with the Essence of Deliverance. You can instead defeat the target without the preparation route, leading to a different reward tier.

Preparing for disenchantment
A1 Discuss the clues and the cure
Before defeating the Manticore, return to l'Owcrey with the written clues you have read. Discuss both disenchantment and the ingredients for the recipe to continue the preparation route.
↑ フローに戻るA2 Hand over the ingredients
Bring 1 × Handful of Amber, 1 × Mindwort, 1 × Crawler Eye and hand them over through their respective dialogue options. You can deliver them separately in any order; each has its own record. Once all are delivered, ask him to begin brewing and follow him to the outside entrance.
↑ フローに戻るA3 Enter the laboratory, wait and collect
Finish the entrance conversation, enter the laboratory and speak to him to start brewing. The timer begins with that laboratory action. An hourly check makes the essence available after at least 5 complete game hours; handing over the first ingredient does not start the timer.
Collect the Essence of Deliverance and return to the cave for 03. Throw it at the target only once the Manticore is at 20% health or below.
↑ フローに戻るCombat and the cradle
03 Fight the Manticore
Advance the encounter dialogue in the cave to begin combat. Direct defeat and disenchantment lead to different outcomes: take B1 for direct defeat, or complete preparation route A before B2. Both continue to 04 to retrieve the cradle.
↑ フローに戻るB1 Defeat the Manticore directly
Defeat the Manticore without the essence. This advances the stage for retrieving the Bone Cradle; pick it up and return it. Without the Venemist introduction, delivery uses the standard reward tier.
↑ フローに戻るB2 Disenchant and meet Venemist
Reduce the Manticore to 20% of its maximum health or less, then throw the Essence of Deliverance at it. This triggers disenchantment and brings forth Venemist. Hitting an enemy too early still uses the throw without meeting the disenchantment condition.
Meet Venemist after the transformation. The higher reward tier checks whether his introduction has been triggered; merely carrying the essence does not qualify. Continue to 04, as the Bone Cradle must still be returned.
↑ フローに戻る04 Pick up the Bone Cradle
Whichever combat outcome you choose, pick up the Bone Cradle to advance to delivery. Keep it with you and return to l'Owcrey at Rotten Willow Tavern. If it is missing, consult route C rather than treating a loss report as normal delivery.
↑ フローに戻るReporting and delivery
05 Report and return the cradle
Report with the Bone Cradle and hand it over. The standard route pays 4000 crowns; triggering Venemist's introduction raises it to 6000. Both give Tanat's Skull and complete the task. See the reputation values below.
You can refuse to surrender the cradle. You keep it but receive no normal reward, incur a base Rotten Willow reputation change of -1500, and the quest is marked complete while the artifact turn-in dialogue becomes restricted. Returning it later uses C3, without granting the normal reward.
↑ フローに戻るDelivery rewards and reputation
The tiers are mutually exclusive and require surrendering the cradle. Reputation values are base inputs; positive gains use the character’s reputation modifier and rounding.
| Condition | Reward | Reputation |
|---|---|---|
| Without Venemist’s introduction | 4000 crowns + Tanat's Skull | +1500 base Rotten Willow reputation |
| After Venemist’s introduction | 6000 crowns + Tanat's Skull | +2000 base Rotten Willow reputation |
Loss, refusal and recovery
C1 Report the loss and begin the recovery window
Reporting without the cradle opens the loss route, starts the urgent recovery stage and records a timestamp. You then have a 48-complete-game-hour window, checked hourly. This countdown does not begin at initial acceptance or pickup.
↑ フローに戻るC2 Recover and deliver before the penalty
After recovering the cradle, return to the regular conversation. This turn-in option checks for the cradle and whether refusal or timeout has been recorded. Without that penalty record it calls the normal reward calculation, using the Venemist introduction to select the tier, and completes the quest. This is the normal reward, not an extra payment.
↑ フローに戻るC3 Recovery after timeout or refusal
When the recovery deadline expires, the hourly check applies the refusal penalty (base Rotten Willow reputation -1500) and then marks the quest failed. Returning the cradle later, or changing your mind after refusal, gives the recovery reputation input of +1500 and removes the associated dialogue restriction, without gold or the skull.
Late recovery does not turn a failed quest into a success or rewrite its existing completion state. Positive reputation is affected by the character’s reputation gain modifier, so recovery and the earlier penalty do not necessarily cancel out exactly.
↑ フローに戻るCharacters and the gathering
D Meet Venemist after the quest
After disenchantment and the introduction, Venemist has follow-up conversations. At Rotten Willow his instance belongs to the Occult Consilium scene; his Brynn appearances also check the introduction, gathering wait state and prior dialogue. Rescuing him does not immediately make him a permanent resident of a tavern.
The task and the gathering have their own conditions. The task does not directly start Occult Consilium. When the gathering begins, it clears the waiting flag if the task has ended and that flag is set. See the situation article for its duration and ending rules.
In the first Brynn follow-up gift conversation, if the talisman gift has not been completed, either response gives 1 Dark Ale, followed by Venemist's Talisman. On the first conversation at the Rotten Willow gathering, the talisman is available if neither the initial Brynn gift conversation nor the talisman gift has been completed. These are alternative entry points, not a gift at each location.
After the gift, he also attempts to provide a catacomb dungeon rumor; an actual rumor depends on an eligible entry being available.
