The Witcher 3: Ugly Baby walkthrough
Here's how to complete the Ugly Baby quest in The Witcher 3.
Act Two of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt begins with a quest called Ugly Baby. This quest is a strange one that requires you to complete multiple sub-quests before finishing it, but don't worry, we've got you - and the order to do them in - covered.
And during this quest, you'll also find that Kaer Morhen also becomes available for Geralt to freely explore. Voila! Without further ado, here's our guide on how to complete the Ugly Baby quest in The Witcher 3.

If you've completed your investigations in Skellige, Novigrad and Velen, you're left with one tenuous lead - the strange fellow called Uma whom the Baron won in a card game.
Return to Crow's Perch to find him. The contact you meet here – the Baron or the Sergeant – depends on whether you’ve completed Family Matters and Return to Crookback Bog. In any case, you are sent to the stables.
Make fun of the stablehand if you like. The contrast between how the Baron’s men talk about Uma and how Geralt approaches the uncommunicative scamp is kind of interesting.
Now we’re off to Kaer Morhen, but before we make it, the Emperor’s forces intercept Geralt and take him to Vizima. There’s a great deal of chatting here, which is useful if you’ve lost track of what’s been going on.
When you've finished talking to Emhyr and optionally quarrelling with Yennefer, we can go to Kaer Morhen. Did you get homesick?
When the cutscenes end, have a chat with Vesemir and Uma if you like.
From here we must complete three child quests in order to complete Ugly Baby. You can choose freely between them, but the most logical and convenient order is Disturbance first, The Final Trial second, and To Bait a Forktail... last. Here are our walkthroughs for all three quests.
Having completed your three tasks, follow your waypoint to the main hall to automatically begin the next questNo Place Like Home.
If you fancy doing something else as Geralt for a bit, here's our The Witcher 3 guide and walkthrough, as well as our Hearts of Stone walkthrough, and Blood and Wine walkthrough to help you out with whatever endeavour you embark on.
