‘In the Eternal Fire’s Shadow’ quest walkthrough in The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt features “In the Eternal Fire’s Shadow,” a quest introduced in the game’s next-generation update in December 2022. The quest can be initiated by traveling to The Devil’s Pit, an old mine located in the center of the Velen region.
In this quest, players assist an Eternal Fire Deacon character as they navigate the mining location. The primary reward for completion is the Forgotten Wolf School armor diagrams—crafting schematics that unlock a unique armor set within the game.
The Forgotten Wolf armor design holds particular significance for players interested in visual customization, as the pieces are modeled after protagonist Geralt’s appearance in Netflix’s live-action The Witcher series adaptation. This design choice represents a crossover between the game and the streaming platform’s interpretation of the character, appealing to fans of both mediums.
The quest offers multiple possible endings or variations, as documented in gaming guides covering the content. Players seeking to obtain all available armor pieces or complete the full quest experience can reference detailed walkthroughs for optimal decisions and routes through The Devil’s Pit.
The update represents CD Projekt Red’s continued support for The Witcher 3, which originally launched in 2015, demonstrating the developer’s commitment to providing fresh content to its long-standing player community.
