Main quests can be stressful, especially when you're sneaking around unfamiliar areas under a time limit. Here's a detailed walkthrough for completing "For Whom the Bell Tolls" in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 - For Whom the Bell Tolls Walkthrough
The quest "For Whom the Bell Tolls" begins immediately after "Wedding Crashers." You find yourself imprisoned in Trosky, with Hans facing execution once the bell tolls 12 times. Fortunately, Henry is assigned to work as a laborer around the castle, providing a chance to save Hans.
Hauling Sacks

Help the Blacksmith

Gather the necessary materials and craft the horseshoe. Once approved by the blacksmith, take the horseshoe to the stables along the path you used for hauling sacks.
Help Fanka the Cook

Then, talk to Fanka, the cook standing nearby. Offering to help her grants you access to the noble's kitchen. Follow Fanka to the kitchen; while you don't need to lockpick it, doing so boosts your reputation and allows future food access.
Speak with the Chamberlain

Make Fever Tonicum

Ascend the stairs opposite the forge to reach the non-noble kitchen, where you'll find a guard. Use the food to make him leave, then head upstairs to the surgeon's workshop. Craft the Fever Tonicum and, if applicable, the Digestive Potion using the ingredients in the chest.
Cure Thomas
Screenshot by The EscapistIf you're helping the chamberlain, return with the Digestive Potion to gain access to Thomas' room. If sneaking, take an alternative route through the noble's kitchen, avoiding guards by staying crouched. Distract the guard at the staircase with a pebble and sneak up to Thomas' room. Give the Fever Tonicum to Adele, Thomas' sister, to trigger the quest-ending cutscene.
That's how to complete "For Whom the Bell Tolls" in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. Helping Thomas before the 12 bells toll increases your reputation, but the quest outcome remains the same regardless.
