You will receive this quest when you read the Gwent Lessons notice posted on the Kaer Trolde Harbor Notice Board.
Gwint is played wherever long evenings, warm fires and strong alcohol are present - meaning it is quite popular in the Skellige Isles. Skellige players rank among the best there is, so Geralt decided to try his hand against them and see if he could win their most powerful cards.
