There actually is an outcome. If you side with Sven and kill the leshen, when you return to the village after the battle of Kaer Morhen, the village is empty and abandoned/ possibly massacred. But if you side with the elder and do the ritual, the inhabitants will remain there in the next act. It shows that the Leshen was protecting them from the outsider forces.

''Physically, his appearance varies; he can take any form he wishes, from an old grandma to a giant crossing his mountains with one step. Historically, his character has kept on expanding; from a bad demon causing storms and heavy snow, he evolved into a guardian of the poor people living in his mountains. It is said that he could test someone at any time to know whether that person's heart is pure (e.g. meeting someone as an old lady asking for help) and that if one does, that person would be shown the way to treasures hidden deep inside his mountains. He punished the German landlords mistreating Czech people as well as any invaders.'' - quote from the wikipedia page

There is a reason for this particular quest to be a little bit bigger than other contracts and also have unique music. This is the first quest that has been shown to the press 2 years before the game was released. I was on one of those presentations at Gamescom in Germany. While there were some minor differences between the one in the presentation and one in the final game most of what we saw remained in the game. Therefore it can be assumed that this music was created a bit earlier just for the purpose of presentation, and quest complexity was there to flash out the choice and consequences that the player would find in the final game.

I feel like with all the unique music and well made cutscenes, this quest was meant to be longer or more impactful on the story. Geralt already refuses to kill intelligent monsters unless he has to, so maybe this was a way of showing not all leshens are dangerous (at least, not dangerous unless you disobey it), and are more intelligent than previously thought. Every other leshen pretty much tries to kill you on sight, and this one seems to fulfill what the elders think it does, so maybe there was meant to be a time where the leshen befriended humans or something

Then there’s the leshen, a sentient being from a different world who controls the village but lets them prosper, with the caveat that it will kill anyone who doesn’t do exactly what it wants.

This quest was difficult. I'm not a traditionalist so my first thought was to kill then Leshen. After thinking about it I saw it as a protector of nature. It was against villagers using tools that would lead to killing too many of the wildlife. I saw the village as having the rep as being the best hunters due to the Leshen's trial, reminded me of Sparta and Spartans. I figured there would be other Leshens to fight so I left this one alive because it seemed to be an intelligent guardian of sorts. So I ultimately had the girl banished to prevent it from being reborn, I did the ritual, then the other villagers could decide for themselves on whether or not they would go after it after not getting inbetween them and the last elder.

I've done multiple playthroughs and always seem to subconsciously pick the direct path to the estate and the attack always startles me. 😅 Not to mention your pretty low level at that point and the Leshen is really strong.

Man, I just played through this for the first time earlier today. Decided after telling Sven to banish Hilde that I wanted to talk to the elder, something about his conversation made me want to try to save the village instead of kill the Leshen outright. Did the ritual, and honestly felt great about the way it ended. Didn’t notice slender man behind me though, so sweet Easter egg!

Would've sided with the young villagers if Sven wasn't such a horrible person. He's weak and petty and selfish. He even easily kills the ones he love. A leader that weak shouldn't be allowed to lead. The elder on the other hand knows when to fight and when to use logic. His best interest is the village. For Sven on the other hand, it will always be his interest or ego that comes first. With that in mind I always sided with the elder.

So, it's always a clear choice for me.

About Bjorn. Maybe someone said it already, but he is an NPC that was part of one of the early (now cut) quests in Skellige about Wild Hunt. He is the guy who narrates the VGX game trailer and talks about the village that was frozen by Wild Hunt (that was later moved into Velen in final release). There was a lot about him said by the devs on official forums during development but it seems all things about him were cut. IMO it adds context to the Leshen quest and i am 99% sure it is one of the earliest quests that were made for the game. It has unique animations/music etc. that aren't use anywhere else in the game. Notice the animation of Geralt catching the coin purse. It is not used in ANY OTHER QUEST in entire game. Even expansions. So i'd say it's just a part of the content that was made when Skellige was actually the focus of the main story (it was the first area created for the game) before they decided that the plot should focus more on Novigrad/Velen etc. areas.

This quest reminds me of the quote from the first episode of the show when Geralt is talking to Stregobor. "When choosing the lesser evil, I'd rather not choose at all." If you choose to work with Sven, Hilde is either banished or killed as well as the elders. If you choose to work with the Elder, Hilde is spared but then you have to choose between sparing the last Elder or letting him die. Also if you spare the Leshen, hunters will continue to die in the town if they do not "follow the old path" It's a quest with no good outcome unfortunately but I chose to spare the Leshen and let the Elder die.

I remember reading about this quest in articles about a closed doors demo in the early promotional stage for the gamewhich explains why it's more complex than a normal contract quest, and the final version is actually cut down (just a bit though) from what was described in those articles. I like the fact that the way the leshen "strengthens" the village is by acting as a natural selector and a brake to human desire for expansion (aka greed); "forest teams with game" because hunting in that forest is so dangerous that hunting is done out of necessity not economic growth, "women bear strong babes" because the leshen simply kills weaker ones. I still kill it though because its presence puts the village at very long term disadvantage, and the fact that they worship it means that its continued presence will lead the village to destroy itself from within as time progresses.

@@hooda47 the Witcher setting is very clear on the importance of being able to survive. Hunting and tracking also involves thinking. If you mean the thinkers of the city, the bureaucrats, the artists, etc, civilisation always collapses under its own weight and the many mouths to feed, then starts again. See Spengler. Strong stable communities can last thousands of years, longer than any empire or dynasty. This one has divine protection, and supporting that rather than abolishing it is the way forward. If you don't do that they all die soon after, as reported by others here.

I just did this quest and decided to not engage the Leshen. That history and the Elders story seemed more interesting then going to kill a Leshen because some snotty nosed men decided they were tired of old ways. EDIT: I have a mild theory about Hilde... The skulls could entirely mean households that were taught throughout the years what the Leshen truly is capable of. Those that made it through the trial, those that have lost someone in the trial or even just those that have done the ceremony? Maybe Hilde decided that since Sven wasn't too keen on the Leshen, she wasn't going to keep the skull. Or Sven was the one to remove it a replace it, as they seemed intertwined already. It doesn't seem coincidental that her home isn't decorated with a skull, but there's plenty of theoretical reasons.

I just happened to do this quest yesterday. I think siding with the Leshen is the better option here. It doesn't mindlessly attack the outsiders, but it allows the hunters to thrive off the forest given it hunts "fair". The leshen wants all species in its domain to thrive, not just humans, but the wildlife as well. It permits hunting, but forbids practices which give humans an unfair advantage, like bows and traps. It doesn't want the game population to be decimated. And according to the elder, in return it subjects their boys to trials to turn them into formidable hunters, it protects them from invaders, keeps the forest teeming with resources, and apparently makes their babies healthier/stronger somehow. The leshen wanting to protect its forest and prevent humans from decimating the resources isn't an unreasonable demand. I just wish there were some way you could have communicated directly with it. To learn its motives for yourself.

If you consider the stories told about the Leshen, it wasn't really an aggressive creature and never actively attacked the town and honored the town even by defending it as long as the hunters tested themselves. Note: Hilda's Leshen horns are the ONLY horns you showcase that are similar to the ancient ones. In other words, the Leshen mask/skull that was once above her house was clearly that of an ancient one with the moose looking horns. Perhaps her lineage is the oldest and thus the ancient one was connected to them somehow?
