Starting the Cabbage Thief Quest

Begin this side mission by approaching Bailiff Thrush in Troskowitz. This NPC patrols the village by day or frequents local taverns—patience may be required to locate him.

Engage Thrush in conversation about village affairs, and he'll mention ongoing cabbage thefts. The quest officially begins when you consult the grocer south of Troskowitz regarding these incidents.

Tracking Down the Thief

Follow scattered cabbage clues along the roadside leading toward Nebakov Fortress. The vegetable trail eventually reveals a concealed riverside path containing a cabbage-laden cart.

Near this cart awaits the notorious vegetable pilferer himself—Sauerkraut Pepa, caught red-handed with the stolen produce.

Resolving the Pepa Dilemma

Confronting Pepa presents three options: show mercy, execute justice, or report him to authorities for reward collection.

Showing mercy yields perpetual benefits—Pepa gifts preserved sauerkraut and offers crafting services for additional cabbages. These non-perishable food items provide substantial healing and nutritional value.

Choosing elimination or turning Pepa in nets 789 groschen from Bailiff Thrush as compensation for your efforts.

The optimal choice hinges on current resource needs. Many players value the sustainable healing items early on, especially since dice games offer abundant money-making opportunities with proper preparation.
