If you couldn't convince the chamberlain, use kitchen food to distract the guard near the non-noble's kitchen. Access the surgeon's workshop through the stairs across from the forge, and craft both the Fever Tonicum and, if permitted, the Digestive Potion using the ingredients in the room.

Cure Thomas

Return the Digestive Potion to the chamberlain if you've helped him, which will allow you to aid Thomas. For those sneaking, head to the noble's kitchen, ascend the stairs stealthily, and use a pebble to distract the guard at the staircase leading to Thomas's room. Once there, deliver the Fever Tonicum to Adele, Thomas's sister, triggering the quest's conclusion.

Successfully helping Thomas before the 12 bells toll enhances your reputation. Regardless of the timing, completing "For Whom the Bell Tolls" in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* is a rewarding endeavor.
