The Great Escape is one of the main quests inside Final Preparations. Yennefer must bring her old friend Margarita Laux-Antille to Novigrad. The witch hunters hold Margarita in Deireadh, the best guarded prison in the North. One man once escaped from Deireadh, and he knows the way in. Geralt and Yennefer break into the prison to set her free.

Choices
Zoltan can help get the guards drunk before the break in. Fewer guards then fight back. Zoltan refuses if the mages were saved in Now or Never, since the witch hunters now hunt nonhumans.
Síle de Tansarville sits in a cell next to Margarita if she survived the events of the second game. She asks for a quick death. Geralt can give it to her or leave it to Yennefer.
