Meeting the Grand Inquisitor on Mars Day and fulfilling his logistical execution demands.

Every Wrath Day, the Grand Inquisitor and his detachment of holy guards march up Witch Hill to conduct public trials. He stands beside the grand stone executioner pyre from sunrise until dusk, overseeing valley orthodoxy.

To earn his cooperation, you must supply basic fuel and propaganda. Chopping 20 firewood bundles at your Sawhorse and printing 10 church flyers at Church Desk I satisfies his opening demands, unlocking the fertile soil of the Witch Hill Vineyard.

Witch Hill Vineyard and Dark Tech Anatomy Authorization

In Act III, the Inquisitor discovers cursed corpses entering your morgue and officially authorizes you to extract Dark Organs (Dark Hearts, Brains, and Intestines), unlocking the forbidden branch of the Anatomy tech tree.

Witch Hill Concessions & The Burning Festival Economy

Tactical Field Recon: The trade highway connecting the village tavern, farmer plots, and city boundary.

Monetizing public execution spectacles through food concessions and Royal Guard approval.

The Inquisitor's Sunday burnings on Witch Hill draw dozens of hungry spectators from the village and outer townships. Recognizing the commercial opportunity, the Inquisitor grants you permission to erect a Beverage and Snack Tent at the foot of the viewing bleachers.

Stocking this concession stand with Quality Burgers and Mugs of Beer yields immense silver revenue during public events. Each burning generates up to 4 Silver in direct food sales, while satisfying the crowd's festive hunger raises your Inquisitorial trust score by +10 points per event, rapidly unblocking the Dark Senses mortuary tech.
