02 / SIDE QUEST

The Scarecrow:
the belongings are not the end.

Find the pendant by the tree, retrieve the letter upstairs in the house, and return both to the scarecrow. Then reach the barn loft and interact with the memory to finish.[1][2]

The Scarecrow item route

  1. Start in the Fallen Village fields. Inspect the man tied to the cross to begin the quest.
  2. Recover the pendant. Search the dead soldier near the large tree behind the scarecrow.
  3. Reach the house from behind. Progress through the village and burning-barn route; the locked front entrance is not the way in.
  4. Search upstairs. Pick up the letter with a drawing, then open the front-door shortcut before returning.
  5. Hand back both items. The departing crows point toward the remaining objective.[1][2]

Check the final interaction

Returning the belongings advances the quest; it is not the last action. If you stopped immediately after the hand-in, finish the memory sequence before treating the quest as done.

Published accounts disagree on the exact reward details. This guide promises a completion route, not a verified currency total or Amber effect.[1][3]

Leave with the task finished

For The Scarecrow, the useful stopping point is the loft’s final interaction. The checklist above tells you where to resume if you already have part of the route behind you.
