In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, numerous side quests demand crucial decisions impacting NPCs' 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 wandering the village during the day or within 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 from the grocer towards Nebakov Fortress. This trail will guide you down a less obvious path alongside the river, ultimately leading to a cart overflowing with cabbages and Sauerkraut Pepa, the culprit.
Dealing with Sauerkraut Pepa:
You face three choices when confronting Pepa: spare him, kill him, or turn him in.
-
Sparing Pepa: He'll reward you with sauerkraut and offer to prepare more if you provide him with additional cabbages. His sauerkraut is a valuable non-perishable food item providing substantial healing and nourishment.
-
Killing or Turning In Pepa: Bailiff Thrush will reward you with 789 groschen.
The best choice depends on your immediate needs. If healing items are more valuable to you than the groschen (especially considering the ease of earning money through dice games), sparing Pepa is arguably the better option.
