2. Track down the pig using Focus Mode

I found pig tracks, they should lead me right to her.

Follow the tracks to the other side of the bridge, then turn right along the stream. After a short while, you will reach a small camp where you will find the pig and a man named Kuno.

3. Take the pig back from Kuno (1 Time Segment)

I need to take the pig from Kuno and bring it back to Iorgu.

As you approach, a dialogue will begin, giving you a choice on how to convince him to return the pig.

  • I do. - You will have to defeat Kuno in a fistfight.
  • Knyaz Brencis does. - In this case, there will be no need for a fight.

In both cases, the pig will run away from the camp and go up the hill.

The pig has run off, dammit! I need to follow her.

Follow the pig. You may run into two wolves along the path, but eventually, you'll find the pig near a ruined house.

5. Catch the pig

The pig has run off, dammit! I need to follow her.

If you have at least one apple with you, catching the pig won't be a problem. Coen will use it to lure the pig to him, and then you'll automatically return to Iorgu.

Catch the pig

If you don't have an apple, you'll have to chase the pig for a moment and hold the correct key or button when the prompt appears.

6. Take the pig back to Iorgu (1 Time Segment)

Now that I've got the pig under control, I need to bring her back to Iorgu.

After catching the pig, you will automatically return to Iorgu's hut, where it turns out he wants to slaughter it. He will ask for your help with this. You can agree to help him, or simply refuse. A third, costly option is to buy the pig to save its life - which will cost you 100 denarii.
