In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, side quests can influence the storyline and shape how players experience the game.
Certain quests and objectives can only be unlocked by completing specific side quests within the game.
Completing either the Mice side quest or the Frog side quest unlocks the Battle of the Frogs and Mice quest.
Starting The Battle Of The Frogs And Mice Side Quest
The Battle of the Frogs and Mice quest unlocks after completing the full questline in either Tachov or Zhelejov with Prochek or Olbram.
Players can choose to side with either Prochek or Olbram and confirm their choice by speaking with them.
However, speaking with the Bailiff in Troskowitz offers players an alternative option for the quest.
This will end the feud between Zhelejov and Tachov and unlock the Truce achievement.
Head over to Troskowitz and look for him; you can usually find him near the Scribe’s house.
Interacting with him will present you with three different options, each leading to a distinct path for the quest:
- Von Bergow would reward you
- It’s your responsibility
- You’d finally have some peace
Selecting the “You’d finally have some peace” option triggers a Speech skill check, convincing the Bailiff to pursue a resolution.
The Bailiff will tell you that the Troskowitz Chronicle may have useful information and allow you to read it if you have high Knowledge.
If you don’t have high Knowledge, you’ll need to sneak your way to read the Chronicle.
Read The Chronicle At The Troskowitz Rathaus
The book is located in the southeast corner of the Scribe’s house. Head in and flip through it.
At the end of the Troskowitz Chronicle, you’ll find details written in red Latin as you flip through its pages.
The line reads “Fecit, ordinem in regione ope clavi ferrei,” which is of great importance as it is highlighted in red ink.
Find A Latin Translator In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Henry doesn’t know how to read Latin and must seek out a translator.
Luckily, the Scribe in the same room can read Latin—just make sure it’s daytime for the Scribe to appear.
The phrase translates to “brought order to the region with the help of an iron nail.”
With this information, head to the pasture between Zhelejov and Tachov to investigate.
At the pasture, you’ll find three oak trees lined up along the path, with a nail embedded in the middle one.
To unlock the “Truce” achievement/trophy, leave the old nail embedded in the tree.
Head back to the Bailiff in Troskowitz and tell him you’ve found the boundary of the pasture.
Return to either Prochek or Olbram and choose to meet the other villagers at the pasture.
After a brief cutscene, speak with the Thrush to complete the mission and receive the Master’s Studies I book as a reward.
