Follow our step-by-step guide to complete the Necessary Evil quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. We cover interrogating prisoners, riding to Semine, and finding Olda.
- 1
Head to the Torture Chamber: After talking with Hans Capon about the situation, make your way to the torture chamber. You'll find it by going up the stairs just before you reach Kabat. Your goal is to get answers from the captive.
- 2
Interrogate the Prisoner: Select the following dialogue options to extract information:
- We asked first
- 3(slap)
- 4(View tongs)
- 5Who is your leader
- 6Tell me right now who it is!
- 7Is Istvan with you?
- 8(take instrument and torture)
- 9What kind of sword does he have?
- 10(stop)
- 11Where is your band hiding
- 12Where are you hiding
- 13Why did you ambush us
- 14(slap)
- 15You’re not worth it
- 16But you will (take an instrument)
- 17Otherwise it’ll end badly for you.
- 18
Leave and Report: Once you have all the information, head outside. You'll lose a bit of reputation, which is expected. Choose the dialogue option “Let’s keep quiet about Semine.” Return to Lord Von Bergow and update him on the situation.
- 19
Travel to Semine: Speak with Hans Capon again and choose “I’ll wait with you.” Follow the men on horseback to Semine's Estate.
- 20
Choose a Side: Upon arrival at Semine, Burgrave Hashek will present a situation. You'll have opportunities to deescalate, but a fight will break out regardless. You must choose to side with either Semine (“Nothing is going to burn!”) or Von Bergo (“I’m on your side”). We recommend sticking with Von Bergo.
- 21
Defeat Semine's Men: After choosing your side, you'll need to take out Semine’s Men. The quickest way to do this is to team up on one enemy at a time.
- 22
Find Olda: Olda has been missing during the commotion. Head into the tower and make your way to the top floor. You'll find him hiding in a corner.
- 23
Conclude the Quest: After a brief conversation with Olda, choose the dialogue option “You’ll be tried.” You will then return to Trosky and meet with Lord Von Bergow in the morning, which will conclude the quest.
- When interrogating the prisoner, exhausting all dialogue options will yield the most information.
- During the fight at Semine, focusing fire on one enemy at a time makes the encounter much faster.
- Reputation loss (expected)
- Quest completion
