The Witcher 3: 10 Best Secret Areas You Need To Visit

4. Dark Souls Bonfire

In the Blood and Wine DLC, players have the chance to leave the colourful lands of Toussaint for the even more colourful, fairy tale-esque Land Of A Thousand Fables and embark on the quest Beyond Hill And Dale.

However, players will only be able to access this part of the game if they make the necessary choices during the pivotal quest The Night Of Long Fangs.

Assuming the right conditions have been met, Geralt will be swept into this storybook world full of references to classic fairy tales. And within this place of beanstalks and yellow brick roads there hides a secret cave with a reward waiting for those who find it.

After defeating the giant at the top of the beanstalk, Geralt will be met by a wisp by a bridge. Follow the critter under the bridge and it will lead you to a hidden cave where an unlit bonfire sits. A familiar and welcoming sight to Dark Souls players, Geralt will even kneel by the fire after lighting it to get the rest he deserves after beating that boss.

That’s not all either. The sword in the fire can be looted, giving you the unique blade Gesheft.
