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. This guide focuses on the Post Scriptum side quest and whether assisting the miners is the right path.

How to Start Post Scriptum in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Post Scriptum begins in the Kuttenberg region. Find the tavern west of Kuttenberg city and speak with Kvyertsolav to initiate the quest. You'll be tasked with writing a letter for the miners—a task with unexpected consequences.

Writing 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, leave it as is, or make it more aggressive; the outcome remains the same. After writing, the miners may try to attack. A successful Speech check can defuse the situation.

Should You Turn the Miners Over to the Baliff?

If you avoid the miners' attack, you can choose to hand them over to the baliff. This ends the quest immediately, awarding you 100 groschen. However, this isn't the optimal outcome or reward. It's recommended to deliver the letter to Markold instead.

Should You Help Markold or the Miners?

Speak with the bodyguard at Markold's house to gain access. You can then blackmail Markold, give him the letter directly, or collaborate with him against the miners. Blackmailing is generally not advised due to a difficult Speech check and immediate quest conclusion.

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

The recommended approach is to deliver the letter to Markold as intended. He'll give you seven groschen and instruct you to meet miners north of the city. Wait for them, proceed to their camp, and speak with Myslibor. A confrontation with Markold will ensue; assist the miners in defeating him to complete the quest. This earns you 160 groschen and helps the miners escape their difficult working conditions.

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