Should you let Anca use The Font in The Blood of Dawnwalker?
Cleanse the herbalist's curse or use it yourself.
Deciding whether to grant Anca access to The Font or to keep it for yourself in Blood of Dawnwalker presents a challenging dilemma. While you've invested significant effort in conquering an ancient ruin, weighing the importance of your personal gain against Anca's welfare becomes crucial. This guide will explore the consequences of each choice, including potential spoilers for Anca's questline. Spoiler alert: the following discussion contains spoilers for Anca's questline in Blood of Dawnwalker.
Upon entering the chamber containing The Font, you discover a limited supply of blood intended solely for either yourself or Anca. You are given three options:
1. If you choose to use the blood yourself, Coen gains the "Font of Life" perk, which bestows health regeneration during the day. Although this is a valuable perk, especially since Witchcraft abilities drain health points, there are numerous alternative healing methods available for humans and through Witchcraft skills. Although Anca will accept your decision, it is important to note that it may impact your relationship with her and subsequently Anca's fate.
2. Allowing Anca to utilize The Font is the most favorable outcome for her. By doing so, the blood cleanses her of the curse, removing the red sigils engraved on her arm. This decision ensures a happier Anca, evidenced by the improved dialogue during the subsequent romance scene and ultimately leading to the best possible character progression for her in the game.
3. Alternatively, destroying The Font results in the discovery of the Ancient Greaves, a pair of average legendary trousers. While this is not an enticing reward compared to the vast array of legendary armor available in Blood of Dawnwalker, it does not negatively affect your relationship with Anca or the ensuing scenes. Consequently, choosing to destroy the Font has no impact on your romance with her and the scenes will unfold as if you had used the blood yourself.
In summary, the decision to let Anca use The Font in Blood of Dawnwalker carries significant implications for her character's development and overall happiness. While personal gains such as the "Font of Life" perk may be appealing, the potential consequences on Anca's storyline should be carefully considered.
