What to Do With Sauerkraut Pepa in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 (Cabbage Thief 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 the decision you face regarding Sauerkraut Pepa.

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

Initiate the Cabbage Thief side quest by speaking with Bailiff Thrush in Troskowitz. He's usually found wandering the village during the day or within the tavern. Engage him in conversation, inquire about recent town events, and he'll reveal the cabbage theft mystery. 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, eventually leading you to a cart overflowing with cabbages. Sauerkraut Pepa, the culprit, is just a short distance beyond.

Should You Spare or Turn In Sauerkraut Pepa?

When confronting Sauerkraut Pepa, you're presented with three options: spare him, kill him, or turn him in to the authorities.

Sparing Pepa: Choosing to let him go will reward you with some sauerkraut. He'll even prepare more if you provide him with additional cabbages. Pepa's sauerkraut is a valuable non-perishable food item, offering substantial healing and nourishment.

Killing or Turning In Pepa: This path leads to a reward of 789 groschen from Bailiff Thrush.

The optimal choice depends on your immediate needs. If you're short on healing items, sparing Pepa might be beneficial. However, if you require the groschen, then turning him in or eliminating him might be the better option. Remember, acquiring money through dice games is relatively straightforward with the right strategy.
