Live Bait Quest Guide
Quick answer: Live Bait is a one-segment family quest in the prologue. Talk to Yanna, bait the hooks with worms and help your siblings fish the ravine before the day ends.
What Live Bait is
A small family quest in Laslea Glen: your younger siblings have been sent to catch trout, Yanna hates baiting hooks, and Coen can help. It costs about one time segment and it will not survive the prologue transition.
Step by step
- Talk to Yanna (your sibling) around Laslea Glen — the quest starts when you speak to her.
- Bait the hooks — set worms on the hooks as the objective asks.
- Find the fishing rods — launch-build guides locate them by the river/ravine area near the village; the exact spot varies by source, so follow the objective marker.
- Optional: a soldier encounter near the water is reported by some walkthroughs — deal with it if it spawns for you.
Why do it
- Family content: this is one of the prologue's family moments with Pieter, Lunka and Yanna.
- Cheap: roughly one segment — it fits in most prologue plans.
- Preparation texture: the Blood Mass outcome responds to how much of the village and family you invested in; this quest is part of that picture.
Timing
Finish it before the Blood Mass — like the rest of the prologue side set, it is unavailable afterwards. In a typical route it slots in before or after Deep Down, whichever you do first.
