    BEFORE you go into village of Merhojed, you have to know how to read. (Ask reeve if he knew, who could teach you how to read, that will mark you location of writer, where you have to spend 2 days to learn it.)

    Go to the village, spoke with Melichar. Go speak to to Mattias in the stable. After that go to speak with sick people, to get grip on their symptoms.

    List of sick people you have to speak with:
    Talk to Bedrishka, dig her husband a grave and bury him
    Talk to Daniel
    Talk to Vincent
    Talk to Old Straw

    After you finish speaking to them, go to Sasau monastery to speak with brother Nicodemus. On the way buy from any blacksmith some charcoal. (you will need it for alchemy recept later) Speak with Johanka and go tell Brother Nicodemus about the plague and tell him that half of the houses and all of the animals have fallen ill. Then say “I know” and “I can read”. Your other conversation options doesnt matter. He will tell you about the book you have to read, while he go to read another book, but you Speak with him before reading it and buy some Valerian and atleast 2 Thistles from him.

    Go read the book of the lectern nearest the door. Tell Nicodemus that you “know what ails them”, and say “poisoning from water”
    Say “I can help” and offer to brew the potion yourself, otherwise villagers will die

    After that, brew the healing potion and take the cure to Merhojed and talk to Nicodemus.
    Give cure to all the sick people – Straw, Vincent, Daniel and Bedrishka
    Talk to Melichar and ask to see the captured bandit
    Cure, wait for and then interrogate the prisoner
    Talk the villagers down when they come to attack the bandit
    Wait a couple of days for the situation to improve and speak to Brother Nicodemus.



    How to brew the Merhojed potion:

    head to an Alchemy Station – there’s one conveniently placed next to the infirmary, or behind the apothecary in Rattay.

    This step is complicated and can go wrong, so familiarise yourself with the steps first so you don’t get flustered and mess up. It’s a good idea to drink a Saviour Schnapps here just in case.

    First, use the Alchemy Station and open your inventory with the d-pad, placing the Valerian, Thistles and charcoal on the bench.

    Next, add water to the cauldron. It’s yellow and on the shelf to your top left.

    Then add two portions of Thistle to the cauldron. Don’t mash them up in the pestle, just pop them straight in. This makes the mixture turn a funny grass texture.

    Now you have to boil the concoction for “two turns”. You turn on heat by pulsing the bellows with the left trigger. Press the button 4-5 times until you see black smokey bubbles in the mixture, this means it’s boiling.

    When you see the bubbles, press the right trigger to turn the hourglass. And when the first lot of sand runs out, press the right trigger again to flip it over.
    Now that the sand has run out for a second time, add the Valerian from the bottom right shelf.

    You now have to boil the potion for one more turn. So press the left trigger until you see the bubbles again. Go slowly, because it’s possible to overboil the mixture. Stop pressing as soon as you see the bubbles.

    As the bubbles start, press the right trigger to turn the hourglass again.

    After the sand runs out, wait for the flames under the cauldron to stop, then add the charcoal from the bottom right shelf.

    Then take a phial from the bottom left and decant the potion.

    You should get a message on-screen that says you’ve brewed Aid for Merhojed.

    To sum up, the recipe is:

    Add water to cauldron
    Add two handfuls of Thistle
    Boil the mixture for two turns of the hourglass by pressing the left trigger 4 to 5 times.
    Add the Valerian and boil for another turn
    Wait for the flames to go out
    Add the charcoal and pour into phial.

    noudfrenkenStraw himself does not need to be cured, you had me running around for a while there.
    It's his wife that needs to be cured, felt rather dumb when i realised that.
