The Whispering Hillock is a main quest in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and here are all the options, choices and consequences.

All options:
0:00 - Ealdorman Talk
2:28 - Search for Tree Spirit
4:17 - Kill option
6:58 - Free Spirit
14:05 - Trick Spirit

Once the heart is reached, you can talk to the spirit, whose dialogue choices will depend on how you started the quest. If you were sent as part of the main quest, there will be some interesting choices to talk to the spirit about the Crones as well as the orphans at Crookback Bog. Otherwise, you'll just have some basic dialogue about why the tree was killing those who got too close. But ultimately, you must then decide the fate of the spirit: release them or kill them.

If you agree to release them, the spirit will tell Geralt to gather 3 things: a raven feather, the spirit's bones, and lastly, a wild, black horse.


For the raven feather, head west of Downwarren along the path until you reach a small broken bridge and you'll see some harpies and birds circling near the cliff over a nest. Once you've killed off the harpies, loot the nest for the feather.

For the remains, head out into the swamps between the Ancient Oak and The Orphans of Crookback Bog signposts, where a water hag is nearby. Go to the southern edge of the yellow search area and, using Witcher Senses, find the spirit's grave and interact to get the remains, to which Geralt will remark they don't appear human.

For the final part, the black horse, head out to where the objective marker is to find several of them. They'll naturally run if you get too close, but you just need to get close enough to use Axii on one of them. Once you successfully subdued one, mount the horse and ride back to the cave where the spirit is and through the new opening that appeared when you left earlier. Once close enough to the spirit, a cutscene will trigger.

Geralt will then have 3 different choices: release the spirit, trick it to let it die, or kill it.

If you go through with releasing it, Geralt will then begin the ritual and the spirit will then transfer to the horse, becoming Black Beauty. If you are doing this as part of the main quest and asked it to save the orphans, Geralt can then ask about them to which the spirit promises to keep their end of the deal and will then run off. Otherwise, the spirit will simply remark they're free again and run off, finishing the quest.

If you choose to trick it, Geralt will start the ritual but then refuse to stab the heart, letting the spirit die without a fight, finishing the quest.

If you changed your mind completely and wish to kill it, a fight will break out like if you had chosen to kill it before gathering all the required items.
