How to Unlock Little Red

Talk to the peasant with the red cap in Yantra. He will ask you to help them with a problem. You must agree to help to start the quest.

Is Little Red Missable or Failable?

If you tell the villagers they are on their own, it will make it impossible to start the quest. The quest will fail if the player strays too far from the village after the bandits arrive.

Objectives
1 Wait until dusk for Little Red and her men to attack.
2 Head toward Little Red to talk to her.
3 You will have a choice between giving Betram to Little Red, or killing Little Red and her men. More information on this choice in the Little Red choices and best choice section.

Little Red Choices and Best Choice

Talking to Little Red reveals that Bertram was helping her by pointing out who is worth robbing in exchange for a portion of the spoils. But she refused him when he started asking for more.

Bertram then went to the Witch Hunters and got half of her men killed. You can decide to let her have Bertram with the promise of only harming him, or you can kill her and her men.

Give Bertram to Little Red

If you agree to let her have Bertram, she will peacefully leave after. You will receive 20 Crowns and 25 XP.

Kill Little Red and Her Band

If you choose to fight and kill her, she will reveal that she is a werewolf. You will have to fight her and 5 of her men at the same time. It will be a hard fight. Killing her will get you 10 Crowns and 50 XP. You can also loot a letter from her corpse. It will provide more backstory on this character.

Best Choice

The best choice would be avoiding the fight. The fight can be challenging and the rewards are not worth it. Story-wise, Bertram is getting what he deserves.

Little Red Tips and Strategies

How to Fight Little Red and Her Men

Fighting Little Red
Fighting a werewolf and 5 bandits at the same time is going to be hard. Start with cutting down the men while dodging the werewolf attacks. Use Yrden to slow the bandits and the werewolf while focusing on one bandit at a time. After killing the bandits, focus on the werewolf.

Applying Cursed Oil to your silver sword will help with your damage output. When she starts regenerating, use fire, poison and bleeding to slow it down.

Little Red is not worth doing

We do not recommend doing this quest. The benefits that you gain from this quest are not very useful for your progression in the game. Finishing this quest will be mainly for the sake of the game's completion and to have more knowledge about the Witcher World.
