Blindingly Obvious is one of the main quests inside Final Preparations. Triss is searching Novigrad for Philippa Eilhart. A spell trapped Philippa in the shape of an owl, and she ended up as Zoltan's pet. Dijkstra found her first and locked her in his bathhouse. Geralt and Triss must reach her before Dijkstra takes his revenge.

Choices
Bart the troll blocks the tunnel under the bathhouse. Geralt can talk him into stepping aside or fight him.
Dijkstra blocks the way out with Philippa. Geralt can talk calmly or force his way through. A calm talk opens Reason of State if Geralt agreed to help Dijkstra's plot against the king. That quest has a part in the ending of the war.
