2222  
2323 Clear the entrance: Two large wooden logs block the doorway. Use Nature's Grasp (Triangle + Circle on PlayStation, Y + B on Xbox, then tap X/A) to lift each log out of the way. Each log takes a few seconds to move.Vault over the second obstruction: A partially collapsed beam blocks the hallway inside. Vault over it by pressing the climb/jump button.Find Marten: The unconscious man is lying on the floor in the upper-right corner of the building. Navigate through the smoke and fire to reach him.Carry him out: Press Square/X to pick Marten up, then walk him back outside to safety through the same path you entered.

3434 The two-minute timer is generous if you know what to do. The Nature's Grasp animation takes a few seconds per log, and the path to Marten is short. Most players finish with over a minute to spare.If you fail the timer, you respawn right before the burning building and can try again immediately. There is no penalty for failure.The Abyss Artifact reward is useful for upgrading your abilities. Do not forget to pick it up from the quest completion screen.Hubert, the kidnapped healer, becomes the focus of the next quest, Kidnapped Healer. The storyline shifts from rescue to tracking down the people responsible for the kidnapping.This is one of the few quests in Chapter 2 with zero combat. The challenge is purely mechanical and time-based.
