Should You Help Prochek or Olbram in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2? (Mice & Frogs Quest Guide)

Early in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, you'll encounter side quests in Tachov and Zhelejov, requiring you to choose between helping Prochek or Olbram. This guide clarifies whether you can assist both and which choice offers the most engaging experience.

Can You Help Both Prochek and Olbram in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*?

Tachov and Zhelejov are locked in a bitter rivalry in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. Fortunately, you can complete most quests for both Prochek and Olbram. This approach unveils a richer understanding of both settlements' backstories. While a completely favorable outcome for both isn't possible, it allows for a more comprehensive experience.

Should You Choose Prochek or Olbram in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*?

If choosing a single side, there's little practical difference. Both aim to sabotage the other, making the choice primarily about personal preference for the quest's humor. Olbram's task involves stealing the Zhelejov maypole—a nighttime stealth operation. Prochek's involves painting Olbram's bull blue, requiring dye from the tailor and a lullaby potion recipe from Radovan.

Prochek's quest might prove slightly more challenging early on, potentially requiring more groschen or Speech skill. Olbram's quest may be easier for those starting the game.

The following sections detail both questlines.

How to Start "Mice" for Prochek in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*

Speak with Prochek in Tachov to initiate the "Mice" quest. If you can't locate him, inquire at the local inn.

Obtaining the Dye and Lullaby Potion

Purchase dye from Bartoshek the tailor in Troskowitz. The lullaby potion recipe requires oil, poppy, and thistle (found in the garden outside Troskowitz's apothecary). Brew the potion, then head to Zhelejov, pour it into the bull's trough, and paint the bull once it's asleep. Report back to Prochek.

How to Start "Frogs" for Olbram in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*

Find Olbram near the meadow in Zhelejov to begin the "Frogs" quest. He'll ask you to steal the Tachov maypole.

Stealing the Maypole

Approach the maypole in Tachov at night. You can either knock out Henrik, the guard, or use your Speech skill to persuade him to leave. Arrange a date for Henrik and Manka, then return once Henrik departs to steal the maypole. Return to Olbram; he'll then task you with chasing sheep from a Tachov pasture and delivering a digestive potion to Alshik.

You can complete this task or inform Prochek of Olbram's plan, concluding both quests.
