Using Count Romilly's Figurine to Unlock a Hidden Witcher 3 Quest
Count Romilly's Figurine can be won for 300 Crowns during the Open Sesame! auction in Hearts of Stone. Taking the statuette to an armorer and dismantling it yields Count Romilly's Will and an Ornate Key. Reading the will starts the A Dark Legacy treasure hunt, which points players toward the Arnskrone Castle Ruins.
Count Romilly's Figurine is an auction prize in Hearts of Stone's "Open Sesame!" quest, costing 300 Crowns. Dismantling it at an armorer—through the Wares menu's Dismantle tab—produces Count Romilly's Will and an Ornate Key. Reading the will activates "A Dark Legacy," directing players to the Arnskrone Castle Ruins in far eastern Velen, northeast of Oxenfurt.
The ruins hold wolves, wargs, and a Leshen. In the western corner, stairs descend to a door breakable with Aard; doing so summons three Wraiths. Beyond them is a chest with randomized loot. The base game launched May 19, 2015, from CD Projekt Red.
Guides like this may help players avoid missing missable content, affecting completionists and newcomers who might otherwise overlook an auction item. It could sustain interest in older RPGs by making hidden quests more accessible, potentially extending community engagement and replay value. However, reliance on external guides may shift how players experience discovery, possibly reducing organic exploration for some while increasing satisfaction for others.
