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 what to do with Sauerkraut Pepa.

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

Begin this side quest by chatting with Baliff Thrush in Troskowitz. He’s usually found wandering the village during the day or relaxing in the tavern. Ask him about recent town events, and he’ll reveal the cabbage-related crime. He'll then direct you to the Grocer south of Troskowitz to officially start the quest.

Cabbage Thief Location

Follow the trail of discarded cabbages leading from the Grocer's. The trail winds towards Nebakov Fortress, eventually guiding you down a less obvious path alongside the river. You'll discover a cart brimming with cabbages, and just beyond, you'll find Sauerkraut Pepa, the culprit.

Should You Spare or Turn In Sauerkraut Pepa?

When confronting Pepa, you face three choices: spare him, kill him, or turn him in.

Sparing him: Pepa will reward you with sauerkraut and promises to make more if you supply him with cabbages. His sauerkraut is a valuable non-perishable food item providing substantial healing and nourishment.

Killing or turning him in: You receive 789 groschen from Baliff Thrush.

The best choice depends on your immediate needs. If healing items are more valuable to you than the groschen (especially considering the ease of earning money through dice games), sparing Pepa is the more advantageous option.
