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 several pivotal decisions, particularly regarding the miners. If you're contemplating whether to assist the miners during this side quest, here's a comprehensive guide to help you make an informed choice.

How to Start Post Scriptum in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

To initiate the Post Scriptum quest, head to the Kuttenberg region. Locate the tavern just west of Kuttenberg city along the road and engage with the NPC named Kvyertsolav to kick off the quest. This quest involves writing a letter for the miners, but be prepared for unexpected twists.

Write the Letter

Navigate to the designated house in Kuttenberg to assist Kvyertsolav in composing the letter. Upon entering, opt for the dialogue choice "Justice is worth more than silver." You have the flexibility to refine the letter, keep it as is, or make it more aggressive and concise. Regardless of your choice, the outcome remains consistent. After drafting the letter, the miners may attempt to harm you, but a successful Speech check can persuade them to spare you.

Should You Turn the Miners Over to the Bailiff?

If you manage to escape the miners' wrath, you'll face the decision to turn them over to the bailiff. Doing so will conclude the quest swiftly, earning you a modest reward of 100 groschen. However, this is not the optimal path, as it offers neither the best outcome nor the highest reward. It's advisable to proceed with delivering the letter to Markold.

Should You Help Markold or the Miners?

Your next step is to meet with the shaft owner. Converse with the bodyguard at the house to gain access and deliver the letter to Markold. Here, you can choose to blackmail Markold, hand over the letter, or collaborate with him to eliminate the miners. Blackmailing him is risky due to a challenging Speech check and prematurely ends the quest.

Opting to assist Markold involves taking down three miners, yielding a meager 60 groschen, which is the least favorable outcome. Instead, it's highly recommended to side with the miners. Deliver the letter to Markold as planned, and he will provide you with seven groschen, directing you to meet the miners north of the city.

Proceed to the designated location, await the miners, and ascend to their camp to meet Myslibor. When Markold arrives to attack, join forces with the miners to defeat him, thus concluding the quest. This path rewards you with 160 groschen from Myslibor and contributes to improving the miners' working conditions.
