Should You Help the Miners in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2? (Post Scriptum Quest Guide)

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, the Post Scriptum quest presents players with significant choices that can impact the storyline and rewards. Here's a detailed guide to help you navigate this quest effectively.

How to Start Post Scriptum in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

To kick off the Post Scriptum quest, make your way to the Kuttenberg region. Locate the tavern just west of Kuttenberg city along the road and initiate the quest by speaking with Kvyertsolav. This side quest involves writing a letter for the miners, but be prepared for unexpected developments.

Write the Letter

Head to the designated house in Kuttenberg to assist Kvyertsolav with the letter. Upon entering, select the dialogue option, "Justice is worth more than silver." You have the flexibility to refine the letter, leave it as is, or make it more aggressive and concise. Regardless of your choice, the outcome remains consistent. After completing the letter, the miners may attempt to kill you, but you can use a Speech check to persuade them to spare you.

Should You Turn the Miners Over to the Baliff?

If you successfully navigate the encounter with the miners, you'll face the decision of whether to turn them over to the baliff. Opting for this choice will conclude the quest immediately, granting you a reward of 100 groschen. However, this isn't the most favorable outcome or reward, so it's advisable to proceed to Markold with the letter instead.

Should You Help Markold or the Miners?

Next, you'll need to meet with the shaft owner. After speaking with the bodyguard at the house, you'll be allowed upstairs to deliver the letter to Markold. Here, you have three options: blackmail Markold, hand over the letter, or collaborate with him to eliminate the miners. Blackmailing him is not recommended due to the challenging Speech check and immediate quest conclusion.

Choosing to assist Markold requires you to kill three miners, yielding a meager reward of 60 groschen, which is the least desirable outcome. Instead, it's recommended to side with the miners. Deliver the letter to Markold as planned, and he'll give you seven groschen, directing you to meet some miners just north of the city.

Proceed to the designated location, wait for the miners, and head to their camp to speak with Myslibor. When Markold arrives to attack, join forces with the miners to defeat him, thus concluding the quest. You'll receive 160 groschen from Myslibor and the satisfaction of improving the miners' working conditions.

By following this path, you'll maximize your rewards and contribute positively to the miners' plight in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. For more insights and tips on the game, including decisions like siding with Semine and exploring romance options, be sure to check out The Escapist.
