Retrieve a lockpick from a red pot in the forge. Speak with Fanka, the cook, and offer assistance to gain kitchen access. While lockpicking isn't strictly necessary, it boosts reputation.

Step 4: Interacting with the Chamberlain

The ailing chamberlain requires medical attention. Attempt to persuade him to allow you to brew a Digestive Potion for access to the surgeon's workshop. Failure necessitates stealth.

Step 5: Crafting the Fever Tonicum

Access the surgeon's workshop (either through persuasion or stealth). Utilize the available ingredients to craft a Fever Tonicum and, optionally, a Digestive Potion.

Step 6: Thomas's Treatment

Deliver the Fever Tonicum to Thomas. If you persuaded the chamberlain, return to him first. Otherwise, use stealth to navigate to Thomas's room, potentially distracting guards along the way. Administering the tonic triggers a cutscene concluding the quest.

Completing this quest before the bell tolls twelve times rewards reputation. However, a successful rescue is guaranteed regardless of timing.
