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
Initiate the Cabbage Thief side quest by chatting with Bailiff Thrush in Troskowitz. He's usually found wandering the village during the day or relaxing in the tavern. Ask him about recent events, and he'll reveal the cabbage-related crime. Next, speak with the Grocer south of Troskowitz to officially begin the quest.
Cabbage Thief Location

Follow the trail of scattered cabbages. The trail leads towards Nebakov Fortress, eventually guiding you down a hidden river path. You'll discover a cart full of cabbages, and just beyond, you'll find Sauerkraut Pepa, the culprit.
Should You Spare or Turn In Sauerkraut Pepa?
When confronting Sauerkraut Pepa, you face three choices: spare him, kill him, or turn him in.
Sparing him yields a reward of sauerkraut. Bring him more cabbages, and he'll prepare additional servings. His sauerkraut is a non-perishable food item providing substantial healing and nourishment.
Killing or turning him in nets you 789 groschen from Bailiff Thrush.
The best choice depends on your immediate needs. If you value healing items more than the relatively small sum of money, sparing Pepa might be the better option. Remember, acquiring money through dice games is relatively straightforward with the proper setup.
