Early in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, you'll encounter side quests in Tachov and Zhelejov, sparking a rivalry between Prochek and Olbram. This guide clarifies whether to aid Prochek or Olbram in the "Mice" and "Frogs" quests.

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

Tachov and Zhelejov's inhabitants are locked in a bitter feud. Fortunately, you can largely complete quests for both Prochek and Olbram simultaneously. This approach unveils more backstory and enriches the experience, though a completely favorable outcome for both is impossible.

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

If choosing just one, there's little practical difference. Both aim to sabotage the other; the selection boils down to personal preference.

Olbram's task involves stealing Zhelejov's maypole—a nighttime stealth operation requiring you to cleverly distract the guard. Prochek's mission is to paint Olbram's bull blue, necessitating a recipe from Radovan and dye from the tailor.

Prochek's quest might prove more challenging early on, potentially requiring significant Groschen or Speech skills to navigate dialogue. Olbram's task might be easier for beginners. Both questlines are detailed below.

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

Initiate the "Mice" quest by speaking with Prochek in Tachov. If you can't locate him, inquire at the local inn.

Obtaining the Dye and Lullaby Potion

After speaking with Prochek, visit Bartoshek the tailor in Troskowitz to buy dye.

For the lullaby potion, either apprentice for Radovan in Tachov or charm him into giving you the recipe. The recipe requires oil, poppy, and thistle—the herbs are found in the garden outside Troskowitz's apothecary.

Once brewed, head to Zhelejov, pour the potion into the bull's trough, and paint the sleeping bull. Report back to Prochek. You can then approach Olbram to begin the "Frogs" quest.

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

Find Old Olbram near the meadow in Zhelejov to begin "Frogs" by agreeing to steal Tachov's maypole.

Stealing the Maypole

Proceed to Tachov in the evening and approach the maypole cautiously. Henrik guards it. You can knock him out or, with sufficient Speech, persuade him to leave by arranging a date with Manka. Inform Manka at the inn, return to Henrik, and once he departs, chop down the maypole.

Return to Olbram; he'll assign another task—chasing sheep from Tachov's pasture and delivering a digestive potion to Alshik. You can complete this or inform Prochek of Olbram's plan to conclude both quests.
