Mortal Shell 2: How To Conclude Gorf's Questline

Not every reward in Mortal Shell 2 comes from a dungeon or a boss fight. Some of the game's more interesting exchanges come from wandering NPCs tucked away in the world, and Gorf is one of the stranger ones. He's a frog found near the game's first beacon, and interacting with him repeatedly over several visits nets you a steady supply of Marsh Pearls, an item that sells for a solid 2,000 gold each, along with a small questline that ties into another NPC entirely.

Mortal Shell 2: How To Find The Chapel Key And The Axe And Dagger Weapon

Asmir KovacevicAUGUST 17

Step 1: Find Gorf near Widow's Overlook

Head to Widow's Overlook, one of the first beacons you can travel to after arriving at Marrow Keep, and continue north from there. You'll come across a trial area on the way, though clearing it isn't required, you can simply walk past it and continue on until you spot Gorf sitting out in the open.

AltChar

Widow's Overlook is the first beacon players will encounter. Head north from here to find Gorf.

Step 2: Trade a Weltcap for a Marsh Pearl

Interact with Gorf and give him a Weltcap. In exchange, he'll hand you a Marsh Pearl. To get another, rest at the nearby beacon to reset the world, then make your way back to Gorf and repeat the exchange. Keep cycling between the beacon and Gorf, giving him a Weltcap and exhausting his dialogue each time, until you've collected four Marsh Pearls this way.

AltChar

Handing Gorf a Weltcap is how the exchange begins, with the frog rewarding each offering with a Marsh Pearl.

Step 3: Receive the Poisoned Dagger

On subsequent visits, you'll also start noticing dead bodies scattered around Gorf, remnants of people who apparently tried to kill him and failed. Eventually, after your fourth Marsh Pearl, Gorf will fall ill and hand over the Poisoned Dagger, revealing that it came from one of his would-be killers. He'll also mention that a knowledgeable person in the area would know what to do with it.

Step 4: Deliver the dagger to Hilga

That knowledgeable person is Hilga, found near Mushroom Village. Bring her the Poisoned Dagger to hand it over. Afterwards, return to Gorf, and you'll find Hilga waiting there alongside him.

AltChar

Hilga can be found near Mushroom Village, marked here on the map, and is who you'll need to deliver the Poisoned Dagger to.

Step 5: Continue the beacon and Gorf cycle

Rest at the nearby beacon once more and head back to Gorf. Hilga won't be there this time, but Gorf will reward you with your fifth Marsh Pearl. Rest at the beacon and return one more time, and you'll find that Hilga has transformed into a frog herself, now sitting beside Gorf. This marks the conclusion of the questline.
