How to unlock the Merciful achievement in A Plague Tale: Innocence - Definitive Guide
Very early on you will come across two dying guards. You need them to stay alive and not use them as rat bait. To get past the first guard throw some Odoris to the left and walk past.
The second guard, use exstinguis on the flame ahead. Throw odoris into the house, then relight the fire with ignifer to trap them.
Go through the door to get the achievement. Not sure this constitutes saving them, but hey.

During Chapter 12, as Amicia and Lucas make their way back to the now-abandoned de Rune estate, they will encounter two wounded English solders, one sitting on the ground against a wall and the other one leaning against a nearby cart. Do not destroy the light sources protecting the two men or rats would devour them. If Amicia explains to Lucas that the soldiers were dead anyway and she had enough blood on her hands as they progress to the next area, that means the soldiers' lives are successfully spared and the achievement would unlock at this point.
