Navigating the choices in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, particularly within the main and side quests, can be tricky. This guide focuses on the Post Scriptum quest and whether assisting the miners is the right path.
How to Start Post Scriptum in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
The Post Scriptum side quest begins in the Kuttenberg region. Find the tavern west of Kuttenberg city, and speak with Kvyertsolav to initiate the quest. You'll be tasked with writing a letter for the miners, but the situation is far from straightforward.
Write the Letter
Head to the Kuttenberg house to help Kvyertsolav compose the letter. Select the dialogue option, “Justice is worth more than silver.” You can choose to refine the letter, leave it as is, or make it more aggressive; the outcome remains the same. After writing, the miners may attempt to attack. A successful Speech check can defuse the situation.
Should You Turn the Miners Over to the Baliff?
If you avoid the miners' attack, you can choose to hand them over to the baliff. This ends the quest immediately, yielding a reward of 100 groschen. However, this isn't the optimal outcome or reward, so it's not recommended.
Should You Help Markold or the Miners?
Next, speak with the mine owner, Markold. His bodyguard will allow access to deliver the letter. You can blackmail Markold, give him the letter directly, or cooperate with him against the miners. Blackmailing is generally difficult and ends the quest prematurely.
Helping Markold involves killing three miners, resulting in a meager 60 groschen—the worst possible outcome. Instead, give Markold the letter as intended. He'll provide seven groschen and direct you to meet miners north of the city.
Meet the miners, proceed to their camp, and speak with Myslibor. Markold will attack; assist the miners in defeating him to complete the quest. You'll receive 160 groschen from Myslibor and help the miners escape their harsh working conditions.
This concludes the guide on whether to help the miners in the Post Scriptum quest. For more Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 tips and strategies, including advice on the Semine storyline and romance options, check out The Escapist.
