The Battle of Kaer Morhen is the main quest in which Geralt and his friends defend Ciri against the Wild Hunt. It starts right after The Isle of Mists, when Ciri brings Geralt home to Kaer Morhen. The friends Geralt gathered in the Brothers in Arms quests wait there to fight. The Hunt rides out of the sky and breaks through the walls. Vesemir dies at the hand of Imlerith. Ciri's power then bursts out in a blast of rage and drives the Hunt away.

Choices
At the council, Geralt decides how to use the laboratory. Potions bring a Superior Swallow after the meeting. Traps go into the courtyards and explode when enemies step on them.
The second choice covers the workshop tools. Patching up the walls means fewer enemies in the battle. Clearing the armory opens a locked room that holds a silver sword.
The allies at the battle depend on the Brothers in Arms quests. Each friend who agreed to help in those quests fights at the keep.
