All Good Things is the opening quest, where you chase Lunka through a canyon and learn the basics of combat. It teaches parrying, vampire form and Shadowstep before the story proper begins.
Look for Lunka in the forest, fight off a group of soldiers, then follow her along the canyon. The game introduces Shadowstep on the way. The chase ends at the church on the hill.
The whole chase turns out to be a nightmare. Coen wakes up when his father rouses him, and the real Prologue begins.
1. Find Lunka in the forest. 2. Defeat the soldiers. 3. Follow Lunka along the canyon. 4. Go inside the church on the hill.
Use this fight to learn the parry timing. On lower difficulties an orange shield shows when to parry, but on Duelist you have to read the enemy's swing yourself.
