How do you complete the Dragon's Dogma 2 The Heel of History quest? If you've stealthed your way into Vermund's dungeons to seek out the magistrate, you'll already know he's surprisingly uninterested in escaping with you. That is unless you can find a library for him to call home. The ever-helpful Captain Brant will then point you in the direction of a fellow called Kendrick, but he's less interested in helping you locate a massive archive and more set on finding a missing boy called Malcolm.
In this Dragon's Dogma 2 main quest, you'll need to gather information from the children in the local area before you can explore some nearby ruins. Like most derelict places in RPG games, this is filled with bats, rats, and spiders, but they shouldn't pose much of a threat. However, if you wish to complete the Dragon's Dogma 2 The Caged Magistrate quest, you'll first need to finish this one. We've got the step-by-step instructions for how to complete The Heel of History below.
