To resolve the ongoing feud between Prochek and Olbram in the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 side quest, "Battle of the Frogs and Mice," follow these steps to achieve a peaceful outcome:
How to Start Battle of Frogs and Mice in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
To initiate this side quest, you must first complete either the "Mice" or "Frogs" quests assigned by Prochek and Olbram. Once you've completed one of these quests, you can trigger the "Battle of the Frogs and Mice" quest by speaking with Prochek in Tachov or Olbram in Zhelejov. After starting the quest, head to the designated pasture to proceed.
Should You Side With Prochek or Olbram?
In this quest, you face the decision of siding with either Prochek or Olbram. However, there's an alternative path to stop their feud completely. To side with Prochek, speak to him in Tachov and choose the dialogue option, "Let's get those Zhelejovites!" To side with Olbram, talk to him in Zhelejov and select, "Let's go and see those Tachovites!"
During the negotiations at the pasture, avoid trying to reconcile them directly as it will only escalate tensions. Instead, if you succeed in a dialogue check, you can cause one opponent to flee, making the ensuing fight easier. Winning the fight for either side grants you groschen.
How to Stop the Feud
For a more harmonious resolution, before heading to the pasture, inquire if Prochek or Olbram wishes to end the feud. Then, travel to Troskowitz and speak with Baliff Thrush, selecting the dialogue option, "You’d finally have some peace." Successfully passing the dialogue check allows you to access the scribe's room and read the Troskowitz Chronicle. If persuasion fails, consider sneaking in, but remember to save your game beforehand.
Engage the scribe and choose the dialogue option, "Fecit, ordinem in regione ope clavi ferrei."
Next, locate three oak trees at the pasture. Examine the middle tree to discover a nail. Your decision regarding the nail's placement will determine land distribution:
- Leaving it in the middle tree splits the pasture equally between Tachov and Zhelejov.
- Moving it to the west tree favors Tachov.
- Moving it to the east tree favors Zhelejov.
Your choice here is largely symbolic, so select based on your preference or remain neutral. After deciding, revisit Baliff Thrush to confirm the feud's end. Then, bring Prochek or Olbram to the pasture to finalize the peace agreement.
Conclude by speaking with Baliff Thrush again to receive the "Master Studies I" book as a reward.
By following these steps, you'll successfully mediate the feud during the "Battle of the Frogs and Mice" in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. For more insights and tips, continue exploring resources on The Escapist.
