In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, numerous side quests demand crucial decisions impacting NPC fates. This guide focuses on the Cabbage Thief quest and what to do with Sauerkraut Pepa.
Initiating the Cabbage Thief Quest:
Begin by speaking with Bailiff Thrush in Troskowitz. He's usually found around the village during the day or in the tavern. Inquire about recent town events, and he'll reveal the cabbage thefts, directing you to the grocer south of Troskowitz to officially start the quest.
Locating the Thief:
Follow the trail of scattered cabbages leading towards Nebakov Fortress. The trail will guide you down a less obvious path near the river, where you'll discover a cart laden with cabbages and Sauerkraut Pepa, the culprit.
The Fate of Sauerkraut Pepa:
You have three choices when confronting Pepa:
-
Spare him: Pepa will reward you with sauerkraut and offer to cook more if you provide cabbages. This non-perishable food offers substantial healing and nourishment.
-
Kill him: Results in a reward of 789 groschen from Bailiff Thrush.
-
Turn him in: Also yields a 789 groschen reward from Bailiff Thrush.
The optimal choice depends on your immediate needs. The healing benefits of the sauerkraut might outweigh the monetary reward, especially considering the ease of acquiring money through dice games with the right strategy.
Conclusion:
