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

Navigating the choices in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, especially during the main and side quests, can be tricky. If you're wrestling with the decision of whether to aid the miners in the Post Scriptum quest, this guide will illuminate the path.

How to Start Post Scriptum in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

The Post Scriptum side quest unlocks upon reaching the Kuttenberg region. Find the tavern west of Kuttenberg city; speak with Kvyertsolav to initiate the quest. You'll be tasked with writing a letter for the miners—but be warned, this seemingly simple task has unforeseen consequences.

Write the Letter

In Kuttenberg, help Kvyertsolav compose the letter. Selecting “Justice is worth more than silver” during the dialogue is key. You can choose to refine the letter, leave it as is, or make it more aggressive. The outcome remains the same regardless of your choice. After writing, the miners might try to attack. Passing a Speech check can prevent this and allow you to proceed.

Should You Turn the Miners Over to the Baliff?

If you avoid the miners' attack, you can betray them by informing the baliff. This ends the quest quickly, rewarding you with 100 groschen. However, this isn't the optimal outcome or the best reward available. It's generally not recommended.

Should You Help Markold or the Miners?

Next, you'll speak with the mine owner, Markold. Speak to his bodyguard to gain access. You can blackmail Markold, give him the letter directly, or cooperate with him against the miners. Blackmailing is discouraged due to the difficulty of the Speech check and its immediate quest conclusion.

Aiding Markold involves killing three miners, yielding a meager 60 groschen—the least favorable result. Instead, deliver the letter to Markold as intended. He’ll give you seven groschen and direct you to meet miners north of the city.

Wait for the miners, proceed to their camp, and speak with Myslibor. Markold will attack; assist the miners in defeating him to complete the quest. This earns you 160 groschen from Myslibor and helps the miners escape their harsh working conditions.

This concludes your quest for whether to aid the miners in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's Post Scriptum quest. For more Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 insights, including advice on siding with Semine and a guide to romance options, explore The Escapist.
