PrologueThe prologue is the opening part of the story. It is set in Laslea, before the open world unlocks. Every side quest here is missable, so do them before the Blood Mass.Pieter once fought and led soldiers as a sellsword, and earned enough to settle in Laslea with Esme. He is strict and emotionally distant but protective, and he won't talk about his past.
In the prologue Pieter works the fields with Coen, then worries Esme won't survive the next Blood Mass and sends Coen to Anca for herbs. He also talks quietly with his friend Vladimir.
Volk is the reason he took up the sellsword's trade. Ask Volk and he'll tell Coen about those years.
Pieter is taken to the castle with the family after Laslea's revolt. In Like Father, Like Son, Coen and Pieter fight each other.
