Witcher 3 Keira Metz questline (witcher 3 keira questline) is the Keira Metz branch in Velen. From the first meeting through the Wild Hunt and Fyke Isle to the choice whether she lives. Below is the short summary. Details are in the separate guides.

Meeting Keira

In the main swamp line the quest Hunting a Witch sends you to a village where Keira helps people as a herbalist. Geralt goes after her into the house and a teleport takes him to the place where Keira is bathing. We get a beautiful show with a nice view. Then the talk continues about who Geralt is looking for. Keira knows about the witches in the swamps and about tracks that lead on into elven ruins.

Wandering in the Dark, the eye and the lamp

With Keira you then go underground in Wandering in the Dark. You search the elven ruins, the Wild Hunt catches up with you and Keira holds a shield against the White Frost while you clear the path. In this stretch you get the Eye of Nehaleni for magical illusions and right after that the Magic Lamp for ghosts. You then use both items across the whole map.

Fyke Isle

Keira sends you to Fyke Isle for the quest A Towerful of Mice. With the lamp you go through the tower, meet the spirit Anabelle and decide whether you believe her. The wrong choice lets a plague maiden into the region. It is better not to trust her and to bring Graham. The full steps are in the tower guide.

Romance

After the tower Geralt can pick the side romantic line and sleep with Keira. Dinner in the woods, a scene by the water, a short calm stretch in Velen. In the morning though you find out she used you. She put you to sleep with magic and took Alexander’s notes from the tower. The detail is in the Keira romance guide.

Keira’s fates

Right after that comes For the Advancement of Learning. Keira wants the notes for Radovid. You can send her to Kaer Morhen, where she helps in the battle and later leaves with Lambert. You can let her go to Radovid and later find her on a stake in Novigrad. Or you end up in a fight and Keira dies in Velen. Finish the whole side branch before the Isle of Mists, or she will not make it to the battle.
