Manticore Silver Sword
Obtaining the diagram for the Manticore Silver Sword is the longest part of the quest. You must enter a hidden cave located just south of the Palace Gardens. In here are three trials of sorts. The first are naked women, which are apparently a trial of temptation. If you’ve played Blood and Wine for any amount of time then you already know these are actually vampires and they need to be brought down.
Continue on and you’ll find a group of beggars with a pile of coins sitting nearby. Pick up the coins and give alms to each beggar by interacting with them. The final trial is a bunch of Kikimore’s. They’re large, tough insects that move incredibly quick and deal a lot of damage. Keep Quen active and you should be fine as you tear them apart.
Once that’s done, continue on and you’ll see a spirit sitting by an altar. Don’t worry though, it will vanish, leaving a diagram and one final clue.
