Sven can be found near the merchant stalls below the fountain in the Merchant Quarter of Vernworth.
Buy the Ornate Box from Auriol for 1000 Gold and give it to Sven afterwards. You can receive a 20% discount (200 Gold off!) if you've finished the Medicament Predicament quest, as the quest giver in that quest is Auriol's daughter!
Giving Sven the box rather than giving him 1000 gold is the better choice as you can get the box at a discounted price, and it has better rewards.
Medicament Predicament Walkthrough
Whichever choice you went with, drop by the fountain to meet Sven and receive your recompense over the following days. You'll have to meet him several times until you get all your Gold back to conclude the side quest.
Your pawns will also remind you to check back on Sven every time the quest advances, so make sure to pay attention to what they say!
There are a few advantages of giving the Ornate Box yourself. You will get the following:
The table below shows the rewards for both options. The differences are nothing major, so feel free to pick either choice!
