Dragon's Dogma 2: An Unsettling Encounter guide — What to do in Allard's chambers
As you well know, Arisen, a key part of putting the kingdom of Vernworth to rights in Dragon's Dogma 2 is working with Captain Brant. Together you'll work to uncover the truth behind the false Sovran and Queen Regent Disa's plot. As part of this, you'll unlock the "An Unsettling Encounter" quest.
This is a relatively short mission, but one that might be a little confusing if you don't know what to do. No worries. I'll give step-by-step instructions for finishing "An Unsettling Encounter" so you can progress the plot further.
Talk with Brant at The Stardrop Inn in Vernworth. He appears at night leaning against the bar. After talking to him, he'll lead you to the private outdoor table to talk.
While talking to Brant, select "Tell me of rumors about Allard."
Make your way to the palace at night. Once you pass the castle threshold, follow the castle soldier and then enter the castle.
Make your way to Allard's Chambers. A cutscene will ensue as soon as it's over, duck out of sight and wait for Allard to leave.
Enter Allard's chambers and run along the left wall until you push a secret door open.
Enter this small room and pick up the Battahli Crested Letter on the table.
When you attempt to leave, you'll realize Allard is right outside the door. Climb out the open window to the balcony and then jump onto the caravan cart below to avoid taking damage.
Now it's time to leave the castle grounds. However, a guard will take notice of you. Talk to Wilhelmina after she saves you from the guard's notice.
Leave the castle grounds and return to The Stardrop Inn so you can deliver the Battahli-Crested Letter to Brant.
That's all you have to do for this quest. You and Brant will discuss what the letter might mean about "securing Melve" and "godsway"— both important things that you'll learn more about as the story progresses. You'll also receive 5,500 G and a Ring of Accrual for your efforts.
Continue to unravel that plot, Arisen!

Dragon's Dogma 2 is proving to be a very challenging yet rewarding game that really makes you earn your victories. If you mess up on a quest, it's possible for that to be the end of things or for the quest to be harder than it initially ought to be. So, if you're worried about potentially running into a consequence you don't like, make sure to rest at an Inn first. This will make it so you can load to your last Inn stay if you're defeated in battle. It's the closest thing to save scumming the game allows.
Additionally, remember that you can bring dead NPCs back to life by visiting the Vermund Charnel House in Vernworth. So, if you accidentally killed an important NPC or a monster did, you might be able to revive them there and continue the quest that would otherwise be closed to you.
