How to Start Axe From the Lake in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

To begin The Axe From the Lake quest in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, visit Tachov's tavern and locate an NPC named Zdenyek the Mouth. When speaking with him, select the dialogue option asking for useful information. He'll share details about a legendary axe hidden in a nearby lake, initiating your quest.

How to Find the Axe From the Lake

Before setting out, ensure you have a spade in your inventory - you'll need it to excavate a gravesite during this mission. Spades can typically be found near graveyards on town outskirts or purchased from general merchants in settlements.

Once prepared, follow your objective marker to the lakeside pier. From there:

• Head north along the path until you encounter an intact tree (Henry will comment)
• Continue until you reach a distinctive boulder (Henry will remark again)
• Proceed further to discover a grave marker beneath a tree

Dig at the gravesite to uncover these items:

• Gemstone
• Silver Ring
• Marigold x5
• Broken Axe

Repairing the Axe

Take the Broken Axe to blacksmith Radovan in Tachov for repairs. You'll need to provide:

• Fastening Material (available from Radovan)
• 699.5 groschen payment

After repairs, you'll receive the Adorned Axe. Return to Zdenyek to complete the quest - you may keep the newly forged weapon for combat use.
