The Blood of Dawnwalker’s main quest is to save Coen’s family — and you’re doing so from the first few moments, just not in a fighting monsters way.
In the beginning of the game, Coen’s mother, Esme, is unwell. She won’t eat, she’s becoming weak and grave concerns spread across Coen, his father and siblings.
If Esme is too weak, they fear she will be killed by the village’s vampire overlord, Brencis.
Coen’s father Pieter sends Coen to meet the village herbalist, Anca, to collect medicine.
After collecting the herbs for Esme, head back to the house to begin brewing the medicine.
Anca’s instructions to brewing the medicine are crucial.

How to brew the medicine for Coen’s mother, Esme:
First, use hot water to brew the herbs.
You’ll then want to add three spoonfuls of herbs to the mix.
Esme must drink the medicine before mass begins, so don’t waste the day and arrive home on time to brew and give her the medicine.

As for what happens next? That’s completely up to the player. Good luck.
The Blood of Dawnwalker is out now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
