Quest walkthrough
- Speak to Gragu repeatedly at the One-Legged Wolf Tavern until he asks for the Heart of Vatra.
- Climb the Temple of Vatra east of its Beacon and reach the corruption-covered kneeling statue at the top.
- Collect the Berserker's Stone first if you want it safely; taking the Heart awakens the petrified enemies nearby.
- Take the Heart of Vatra and return to Gragu.
- Give him the Heart, wait for the scene to finish, then inhabit the body to unlock Gragu and Heartless.
Important note
The Heart is a quest item with an immediate encounter trigger. Prepare before interacting with the statue.
