As you spend a lot of time around the infirmary during the *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* Mysteria Ecclesia DLC, you are bound to run into Maddie. The poor girl is desperately trying to get help from the learned monks, but few of them have time for her. As such, it’s up to you to assist her in her plight.

## Maddening Pain Quest Guide – Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

### Important Note
You must complete this quest before finishing the *Anamnesis* DLC quest. If you wait until afterward, you will no longer be able to complete this side quest.

### Starting the Quest
After speaking to Maddie outside the infirmary, you’ll learn that she is suffering from terrible stomach pain. Unfortunately, few people take her seriously, and she begs you for help.

The first step is to enter the infirmary and speak with Novice Benedict. Run through his dialogue options and ask him to help Maddie. Initially, he will refuse but will eventually offer a simple potion that he believes might help her.

**Warning:** Do **not** give Maddie this potion! Giving her Benedict’s potion will cause you to fail the quest.

### Seeking Help from Albich
Instead, head to the back left of the infirmary where you will find Albich. Talk to him and ask for help. After your conversation, Albich will provide you with a recipe for an anti-inflammatory potion.

### Ingredients Needed
– Water x1
– Nettle x2
– Valerian x1
– Ginger x1

You can find nettle and valerian just outside the infirmary in the courtyard. Ginger is located inside the cabinet in the alchemy room at the rear of the infirmary.

### Crafting the Anti-Inflammatory Potion
Follow these steps at the alchemy bench to make the potion:

1. Open the recipe book and prepare your ingredients by holding **E**.
2. Add water to the cauldron from the jars.
3. Place nettle into the mortar and grind it with the pestle.
4. Add the ground nettle to the cauldron.
5. Lower the cauldron for one turn of the timer, then raise it.
6. Add two handfuls of valerian directly to the cauldron.
7. Lower the cauldron for two turns of the timer.
8. Place the ginger in the mortar, grind it, and add it to the cauldron.
9. Use a phial from the left side of the bench and interact with the cauldron to pour the potion.

### Completing the Quest
Once the potion is crafted, go to the building at the northern edge of the monastery and give it to Maddie.

That’s it! You won’t receive any material reward, but it’s rewarding enough to have helped someone in need.

Helping Maddie not only completes the *Maddening Pain* side quest but also adds a touch of humanity to your journey in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. Be sure to act quickly before the *Anamnesis* DLC quests conclude!
