This won't be "A Needle in a Haystack" all over again
Locking Henry in the monastery instantly reminds fans of the series of the most loved and hated quest from the first game, "A Needle in a Haystack," where Henry went undercover and lived as a monk for a few days, following all the rules. This time, however, it will be a bit different. Although you won't be able to leave the location again, there will be much more freedom.
It's true, the associations with "A Needle in a Haystack" are quite fitting, but there you were always in disguise, while here you are, Henry, and you're trying to help people. I think, it's much more sophisticated than "A Needle in the Haystack." The map is quite a big one, bigger than the Sasau monastery. There is a large church under construction, with many buildings, herb gardens, and a community of people living there. The area also features fighting arenas, secrets to discover, and drunk monks playing dice in the cellar. Additionally, there are a lot of side quests to complete. There is also a crypt with many secrets.
When the quarantine begins, you won't be able to leave this area and return to the main game until you finish the DLC [there will be several possible endings], but this time you'll receive a very clear notification asking if you really want to start the DLC. You can't start it accidentally like A Woman's Lot.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 - Mysteria Ecclesiae, Deep Silver, 2025.
The frequently repeated message that Henryk will try to help sick people, while naturally worrying about his own health, immediately raises the question: What about the combat? In this expansion, do we completely put the sword away in a chest or hang it on the wall in our forge? Will there be any enemies on the holy ground of the monastery? Situations where you'll need to reach for a weapon?
You'll have way more chances to fight than you'd ever expect!
