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

Navigating the choices in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, particularly within the main and side quests, can be tricky. If you're pondering whether to assist the miners during the Post Scriptum quest, this guide will clarify your options.

How to Begin Post Scriptum in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Post Scriptum is a side quest initiated in the Kuttenberg region. Locate the tavern west of Kuttenberg city, and speak with Kvyertsolav to begin the quest. This involves writing a letter for the miners, but the path forward isn't straightforward.

Crafting 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's wording—making it more aggressive, less aggressive, or leaving it as is—the ultimate outcome remains unchanged. Following this, the miners might attempt to attack you. A successful Speech check will allow you to de-escalate the situation.

Should You Betray the Miners?

If you successfully avoid an altercation, you’ll have the option of handing the miners over to the bailiff. While this ends the quest quickly with a 100 groschen reward, it's not the most rewarding or morally sound choice. A better path is to deliver the letter to Markold.

Aiding Markold or the Miners?

Next, speak with the shaft owner. His bodyguard will grant you access to Markold. You can choose to blackmail him, give him the letter directly, or collaborate with him against the miners. Blackmailing Markold is difficult (high Speech check required) and ends the quest prematurely.

Helping Markold involves killing three miners, yielding a meager 60 groschen—the least desirable outcome.

Instead, deliver the letter to Markold as intended. He'll provide seven groschen and instruct you to meet miners north of the city. Wait for them, proceed to their camp, and speak with Myslibor. Markold will attack; assist the miners in defeating him to conclude the quest. This earns you 160 groschen and helps the miners improve their working conditions.

This concludes your decision on whether to aid the miners in the Post Scriptum quest within Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. For further game insights, including advice on siding with Semine and a comprehensive guide to romance options, explore The Escapist.
