In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, the side quest "Battle of the Frogs and Mice" offers a chance to end a long-standing feud between Prochek and Olbram. Here's how to navigate this quest and bring peace to the region.
How to Start Battle of Frogs and Mice in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
To unlock the "Battle of the Frogs and Mice" quest, you must first complete either the "Mice" or "Frogs" quests for Prochek or Olbram. Once completed, the new quest will become available. Begin by speaking to Prochek in Tachov or Olbram in Zhelejov, then head to the designated pasture to start the quest.
Should You Side With Prochek or Olbram?
During the quest, Henry faces the decision to side with either Prochek or Olbram. To support Prochek, speak with him in Tachov and choose the option "Let's get those Zhelejovites!" To support Olbram, speak with him in Zhelejov and select "Let's go and see those Tachovites!"
Engaging in negotiations at the pasture, passing a dialogue check can cause one opponent to flee, making the subsequent fight easier. Winning the fight for either side will grant you groschen.
How to Stop the Feud
For a peaceful resolution, before heading to the pasture, ask Prochek or Olbram if they wish to end the feud. Then, travel to Troskowitz and speak with Bailiff Thrush, selecting the dialogue option, "You’d finally have some peace." If you pass the dialogue check, you'll gain access to the scribe's room to read the Troskowitz Chronicle. If persuasion fails, you can sneak in to read it, but remember to save your game beforehand.
After speaking with the scribe, choose the dialogue option, "Fecit, ordinem in regione ope clavi ferrei."
Next, at the pasture, locate three oak trees. Examine the middle tree to find a nail, which you can use to:
- Leave in the middle tree to split the pasture equally between Tachov and Zhelejov.
- Place in the west tree to allocate more land to Tachov.
- Place in the east tree to give more land to Zhelejov.
Your decision here doesn't significantly impact the outcome, so choose based on your preference or remain neutral. After deciding, speak with Bailiff Thrush again to confirm the feud's end. Then, bring Prochek or Olbram to the pasture to finalize the peace agreement.
Finally, speak with Bailiff Thrush to receive the "Master Studies I" book.
