An Unsettling Encounter is a quest in Dragon's Dogma 2 that is initiated by speaking with Captain Brant in Vernworth's tavern. To complete this quest, players must visit Vernworth Castle at night and search the chambers of a minister known as Allard. This walkthrough is here to assist with that endeavor, and full details on how to complete Dragon's Dogma 2's An Unsettling Encounter quest can be found in what follows.
Dragon's Dogma 2: An Unsettling Encounter Walkthrough
Go to Vernworth Castle Between Midnight and Dawn
The first step toward completing this Dragon's Dogma 2 quest is entering Vernworth Castle between midnight and dawn, and players can easily reach a suitable time by sleeping at the inn in Vernworth until nightfall. Alternatively, fans can achieve a similar effect by dozing on one of the benches in town, and that approach has the added benefit of being free.

Dragon's Dogma 2's character creator is available for free. Here's how to use it, and port characters into the full game once it comes out.
Approach Allard's Chambers
Upon entering Vernworth Castle, players should make their way to the second floor and approach Allard's chambers. This action will trigger a short cutscene, in which Allard has a conversation with a guard, and fans will be free to enter his room upon its conclusion.
The in-game waypoint can be a bit confusing during this portion of the quest, and it may result in players searching the Magistrate's Office in an attempt to advance An Unsettling Encounter. Fortunately, that office is very near to Allard's chambers, and Dragon's Dogma 2 players should simply exit the room and go right to trigger the aforementioned cutscene.
Search Allard's Chambers
Players must now search Allard's chambers and secure the Battahli-Crested Letter, and this is perhaps the most confusing part of the quest. Indeed, the letter is quite well hidden, and action RPG fans must pass through a fairly inconspicuous door to reach it. That door is cut out of the eastern wall in Allard's chambers, and pressing against it will give players access to a hidden room with a desk upon which the 
Battahli-Crested Letter sits.
Report Back to Captain Brant
After collecting the letter, and watching a short cutscene, players should exit Vernowrth Castle, via a window in Allard's chambers, and make their way toward Captain Brant at the tavern in Dragon Dogma 2's Vernworth. Along the way, fans will encounter Wilhelmina, and she will provide them with a 
Myrmecoleon Card Players will also receive 1,200 XP, 5,500 G, and a 
Ring of Accrual once they finally show the Battahli-Crested Letter to Brant, as those act as rewards for completing An Unsettling Encounter.
