If persuasion succeeds ([Intelligence] check or SCHOLAR) then he will give you the Key to open his house and the hatch To Healer's House Cellar.
1.1. Enter Cellar
We have entered the cellar, which appears to be used as an infirmary. The woman should be close.
1.2. Operation Successful
You need a character with Scholar talent to be able to cure Natalie Bromhead. Approach her with that charater then select ...
[SCHOLAR] *Point out a partially healed circular wound upon the woman's scalp - a trepanation wound. Someone opened her head and tinkered around, it seems.*
... then ...
*Agree - if there's even a small chance of saving her, you have to try.*
Four additional enemies will spawn: Natalie's Anguish, Natalie's Despair, Natalie's Fury and Natalie's Fear - kill them (for XP) and then weaken Natalie (<50% HP). Be careful! Don't kill her!
Note: Additional monsters will disappear when you weaken Natalia, so you can skip them, but then you will not get experience points for killing them.
Wait for Swan to come to Natalie's body then select ...
*Begin the operation.*
... then ...
*Ask Swann to help keep her steady.*
... then ...
*Select a pair of delicate tweezers and gently try to remove the maggot.*
... then ...
*Slowly close up the wound.*
The result will be ...
We successfully operated on the young woman. It looks like she will make a full recovery. We should inform Swann of our success.
1.2.1. Told Healer Of Life
Talk to Natalie Bromhead then talk to Gregorius Swann.
We told Swann that the young woman is well now. He was astounded by our success, and agreed to help her through the rest of her recovery. He will also be available to us as a healer and trader from now on.
1.2.1.1. Quest Reward
1.3. Killed Daughter Healer
If you do not have a Scholar in your team, or if you hit Natalie too hard and kill her or you could not cure her because you chose the wrong options, then you have to kill her.
We were forced to kill the afflicted young woman after she attacked us. Swann has vowed to study her remains, in order to figure out what happened to her.
