mod adds a quest of the same name that tasks Geralt with lighting the Saovine bonfire in Skellige ahead of their celebrations.

These mods are just a handful of the myriad players are creating, with content creation boosted by the release of the aforementioned REDkit. This gives modders access to official assets used by CD Projekt Red and therfore allows the creation of new characters, quests, locations, and more.
