Early in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, the "Canker" side quest becomes available after completing "The Jaunt." This quest offers a chance to acquire a mace and some Groschen. Here's how to complete it.

Pick Up the Canker Side Quest

To begin, speak with Gules in Semine. Conveniently, this quest can be initiated before or during Lord Semine and Agnes' wedding; find him either drinking beforehand or on patrol. Ask about his former bandit group and offer your assistance in eliminating them. Canker is your first target.

Find and Kill Canker

Accepting the quest marks Canker's location on your map, north of Nebakov Mill. Be prepared for potential ambushes from bandits along the path. Choose your approach: stealth, combat, or a swift retreat. While these bandits aren't overly challenging, skirmishes can deplete your health before the main encounter.

Canker's camp is nestled within the mountains, easily missed due to a narrow passage. Prepare for battle before entering, as several bandits, including Canker, await. Some bandits might flee depending on the order you eliminate them, but thorough combat is recommended to ensure Canker's demise.

Finish the Quest and Return to Gules

Once Canker and his cohorts are defeated, loot Canker's body. You must acquire the Light Mace, though other loot is yours for the taking. Return to Gules with the mace to complete the quest.

After completing "Canker," wait a full in-game day before speaking to Gules again to begin the next quest, "Handsome Charlie."
