Contract: Jenny o' the Woods

Witcher contract Velen suggested level 10 On the world map

From the journal

While traversing the fields near Midcopse, Geralt came across some strange tracks. He would not be a witcher if he did not look into such a matter.

Geralt discovered that the monster the locals called Jenny o' the Woods was in fact a common nightwraith. This unfortunate being had been born of a woman murdered by her rejected lover. The story of their star-crossed fate moved me to pen a tear-jerking ballad... but the witcher was mainly moved to find a way to bait and destroy the wraith.

Geralt drove off the nightwraith that the unfortunate Zula had become. I derive some small pleasure in knowing that a person to whom life had been so cruel found at least this measure of relief after death...

While in the area around the village of Midcopse, Geralt decided to look around and see if there wasn't anyone in need of a witcher. It just so happened there was - on the local notice board hung an offer of a bounty for ridding the area of a monster called Jenny o' the Woods. Geralt decided this was something he should look into.

Geralt happened across a nightwraith in the woods around Midcopse. He decided to find out how it had come to be there.
