In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, the ongoing feud between Prochek and Olbram can be resolved during the Battle of the Frogs and Mice side quest. Here's a detailed guide on how to start the quest and ultimately stop the feud.
How to Start Battle of Frogs and Mice in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
To initiate the Battle of the Frogs and Mice side quest, you must first complete either the Mice or Frogs quests for Prochek and Olbram. Once you've completed one of these quests, the Battle of the Frogs and Mice will become available. To start, simply speak with Prochek in Tachov or Olbram in Zhelejov. After initiating the quest, head to the designated pasture to proceed.
Should You Side With Prochek or Olbram?
During the quest, you'll be faced with the decision to side with either Prochek or Olbram. To support Prochek, talk to him in Tachov and choose the dialogue option, "Let's get those Zhelejovites!" To side with Olbram, speak with him in Zhelejov and select, "Let's go and see those Tachovites!"
While at the pasture, avoid trying to reconcile them during their negotiations, as this will only trigger the fight prematurely. Successfully passing a dialogue check during these negotiations can cause one person from the opposing side to flee, making the subsequent fight easier. Winning the fight for either side will grant you some groschen.
How to Stop the Feud
For a more peaceful resolution, you can end the feud altogether. Before heading to the pasture, ask Prochek or Olbram if they're willing to end the feud. Then, travel to Troskowitz to meet Baliff Thrush and select the dialogue option, "You’d finally have some peace." Passing the subsequent dialogue check allows you to access the Troskowitz Chronicle in the scribe's room. If you fail to persuade Baliff Thrush, you can sneak into the room to read the chronicle, but remember to save your game beforehand.
Once in the scribe's room, choose the dialogue option, "Fecit, ordinem in regione ope clavi ferrei."
Next, go to the pasture and locate three oak trees aligned next to each other. Examine the middle tree to find a nail. Your choices with the nail are:
- Leaving it in the middle tree will split the pasture equally between Tachov and Zhelejov.
- Placing it in the west tree will allocate more land to Tachov.
- Placing it in the east tree will allocate more land to Zhelejov.
The choice of where to place the nail is inconsequential, so feel free to choose based on your preference or remain neutral. After deciding, speak with Baliff Thrush again, who will agree to end the feud. Then, bring Prochek or Olbram to the pasture to finalize the resolution.
After successfully ending the feud, speak with Baliff Thrush to receive the Master Studies I book.
This is how you can stop the feud during the Battle of the Frogs and Mice in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. For more tips and information on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
