Embark on a side quest adventure in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, where your choices shape the destiny of NPCs. This guide focuses on the Cabbage Thief quest and the fate of Sauerkraut Pepa.

How to Start the Cabbage Thief Quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Begin your Cabbage Thief quest by chatting with Bailiff Thrush in Troskowitz. He's usually found wandering the village during the day or relaxing in the tavern. Ask about recent town events, and he'll reveal the cabbage-related crime. Next, speak with the Grocer south of Troskowitz to officially begin the quest.

Follow the trail of scattered cabbages leading from the grocer towards Nebakov Fortress. The trail will guide you down a less obvious path near the river, eventually leading to a cart overflowing with cabbages. Sauerkraut Pepa, the culprit, is just a short distance from the cart.

Should You Spare or Turn In Sauerkraut Pepa?

When confronting Sauerkraut Pepa, you face three choices: spare him, kill him, or turn him in.

Sparing Pepa earns you some delicious, non-perishable sauerkraut. Bring him more cabbages, and he'll prepare even more of this valuable, healing food item.

Killing or turning him in yields a reward of 789 groschen from Bailiff Thrush.

The best choice depends on your current 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 the better option.
