Once you regain control of Henry, Bozhena — the woman who saved you — will offer guidance. She gives bandages for your wounds. To help stop the blood flow, follow these steps; open the inventory and apply four bandages; these can be found in the Utility section of the inventory.

Hunger is your other problem, and you can find a pot of food near your bed. Interact with it to consume it as you will not have any containers to carry food. Finally, hygiene applies too; go out to the wash basin which lies on the left of the cottage. This one is not just for the sake of aesthetics; staying clean increases your charisma, which is very important for the checks of dialogue.

After tending to the needs of Henry, speak to Bozhena to find out about Hans. She asks you to collect Chamomile and Sage for a healing potion. If you're not sure about the herbs' looks, ask her for descriptions.

The woods around you are full of them. The white flowers point to Chamomile, while the purple ones to Sage. Gather more than you need to stock up for later use, as these herbs are used in potion crafting later in the game.

Defending the cottage

Upon returning with the herbs, you’ll encounter bandits searching for you and Hans. Prepare to fight by picking up the Hunting Sword near the dead bandit's body outside the cottage. The fight is not too difficult; a few good hits will send the bandits scurrying.

Brewing the healing potion

With the bandits taken care of, Bozhena takes you to the alchemy station. Brewing the Chamomile Decoction potion properly is important, as mistakes force you to start over.

First, pour the wine from the left shelf into the cauldron. Suck the cauldron down to the flames then use the bellows until the wine starts to boil. Pour two portions of Chamomile from the right shelf next.

Time the boil using the sandglass before adding ground Sage, prepared using the mortar and pestle. Finally, transfer the potion into a phial from the shelf to complete the process. Take the finished potion to Bozhena who administers it to Hans.
