Kingdom Come Deliverance 2: Sauerkraut Quest Guide

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

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

Initiate the "Cabbage Thief" side quest by chatting with Bailiff Thrush in Troskowitz. He's usually found strolling around the village during the day or inside the tavern. Ask him about recent happenings in town, and he'll reveal the cabbage-related crime. You'll then be directed to the Grocer south of Troskowitz to officially begin the quest.

Cabbage Thief Location

Follow the trail of scattered cabbages leading towards Nebakov Fortress. This trail will guide you down a somewhat hidden path alongside the river, where you'll discover a cart overflowing with cabbages. Sauerkraut Pepa, the culprit, is just a short distance beyond 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 yields a reward of sauerkraut. He'll even prepare more if you provide him with additional cabbages. Pepa's sauerkraut is a non-perishable food item offering substantial healing and nourishment.

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

The best choice depends on your immediate needs. If healing items are more valuable to you than the money (especially considering the ease of earning money through dice games with the right strategy), sparing him is the better option.
