In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, numerous side quests demand crucial decisions impacting NPCs. This guide focuses on the Cabbage Thief quest and how to handle Sauerkraut Pepa.
Starting the Cabbage Thief Quest
Initiate the Cabbage Thief side quest by conversing with Bailiff Thrush in Troskowitz. He's usually found exploring the village during the day or within the tavern. Inquire about recent town events; he'll reveal cabbage thefts, directing you to the grocer south of Troskowitz to officially begin the quest.
Locating the Thief
Follow the trail of scattered cabbages leading towards Nebakov Fortress. This path will guide you down a less obvious riverside trail, ultimately revealing a cabbage-laden cart. Sauerkraut Pepa, the culprit, is shortly beyond.
Dealing with Sauerkraut Pepa: Spare, Kill, or Turn In?
When confronting Pepa, you face three choices: release him, kill him, or hand him over to authorities.
-
Spare Pepa: He'll reward you with sauerkraut and offer to prepare more if you provide cabbages. His sauerkraut is a valuable non-perishable food item providing substantial healing and nourishment.
-
Kill or Turn In Pepa: Bailiff Thrush will reward you with 789 groschen.
The optimal choice depends on your immediate needs. If healing items are prioritized, sparing Pepa is advantageous. However, if you require the groschen, turning him in or killing him is the better option. Remember that acquiring money through dice games is relatively easy with the right strategy.
