Miners' Fate in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 - Post Scriptum Quest Guide

In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, the choices you make during the Post Scriptum quest can significantly impact your gameplay experience. If you're pondering whether to assist the miners, here's a comprehensive guide to help you make the best decision.

How to Start Post Scriptum in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

To embark on the Post Scriptum side quest, make your way to the Kuttenberg region. Once there, locate the tavern just west of Kuttenberg city along the road and engage with the NPC, Kvyertsolav, to initiate the quest. This quest involves crafting a letter for the miners, but be prepared for unexpected developments along the way.

Write the Letter

Navigate to the house in Kuttenberg to assist Kvyertsolav with the letter. Upon entering, select the dialogue option "Justice is worth more than silver." You have flexibility in how you craft the letter; you can refine it, keep it as is, or make it more concise and aggressive. Regardless of your choice, the miners will attempt to kill you after you finish writing. You can use a Speech check to persuade them to spare you.

Should You Turn the Miners Over to the Baliff?

If you successfully convince the miners to let you go, you'll face the decision of whether to turn them over to the baliff. Opting for this route will conclude the quest abruptly and net you 100 groschen. However, this isn't the most rewarding or favorable outcome. A better choice would be to deliver the letter to Markold.

Should You Help Markold or the Miners?

Next, you'll need to meet with the shaft owner. After speaking with the bodyguard and gaining access to the upstairs area, you can decide to blackmail Markold, hand over the letter, or collaborate with him to eliminate the miners. Blackmailing him is not advisable due to the challenging Speech check and immediate quest conclusion.

Choosing to align with Markold requires you to kill three miners, yielding a modest reward of 60 groschen. This is the least desirable outcome. Instead, I recommend siding with the miners. Deliver the letter to Markold as planned, receive seven groschen, and proceed to a designated spot north of the city to meet the miners.

Upon arriving at the location, wait for the miners and then ascend to their camp to speak with Myslibor. When Markold attacks, assist the miners in defeating him. This action will conclude the quest, earning you 160 groschen and the satisfaction of improving the miners' working conditions.
