Game of Thrones Walkthrough Part 54 – Alester – Blood On The Sand, Part 1

If you ever wanted a lot of money, this is the side quest to do. It is only available during one chapter so it is important to do before you complete Chapter 8. Head back into the Sewers and over to the Arena. Talk with Ossifer to get him to set up your first match. Be sure to make a bet on this match so you will get some return on it. Just be sure to collect from him after each fight. You participate in up to 6 fights in the arena. It is also important to note that anyone you spare during these fights is a potential ally when you reach the fourth round and enter into a team battle.

Crowd Favor
Throughout this sidequest, it is very important to keep the crowd on your side. If you do not, losing a match will mean losing your life. To improve your relations with the crowd, buy rounds of drinks. This is done with Wyl the Drunkard who is opposite Ossifer in the arena. These cost 20 silver stags, but they make sure that the crowd will be on your side for a match you would rather lose than win for profit. You also increase the crowd's favor by listening to them to kill or spare men in the arena. Be sure to also talk with the people around the arena to gain their favor as well.

Objective: “Go and speak with the guard below when you're ready.”

Fight 1: The Rubec Brothers
Reward: 12 Silver for winning
The game is revealed that one of the weapons is poisoned and you are fighting against 3 brothers. The first thing to do is focus on the Brother with the Sword. His weapon is the one that is poisoned. To really come out on top of this fight, it is best to immobilize as many of the brothers as you can and just focus on one of them at a time. It is quite difficult to manage 3 opponents at once on your own, but doable. A good strategy is to keep the one with the poisoned weapon down as much as possible and use area of effect attacks to hit all 3 brothers at once. It will only take a short while to finish them off with that path.

Before Fight 2, talk with Ossifer so you can place a bet on the coming fight. Alester will immediately confront him for the surprise in the match. You can either accept the amount or press for more. Ossifer will not be too pleased if you press on him, but the choice is yours.

Time to cozy up to the crowd. Head over to Wyl The Drunkard and talk with him some. For 10 silver he will tell you about Symon. What he reveals is is an honorable man and will not kill for pleasure. He can repair his armor in the middle of a fight. You can gain some crowd favor by getting them a round of drinks. After that, head down to your preparation room. There Rupert will talk to you. You can listen to him and set up a way to wager on your fights or ignore him. It is better to listen to him. You can wager 10 or 20 silvers on a match, which are paid upfront. By paying attention to the odds, you will learn how to make the most of your money.
