Updated January 2025 ("King's Silver" Guide)
"The King's Silver" is a side quest given by Tobias Feyfar in Rattay. He tasks Henry with investigating the Skalitz mines to assess their condition and determine if silver is being stolen. This quest is distinct from "All That Glitters." Ensure you speak to Feyfar and state that Sir Radzig sent you to begin this specific quest.
Quest Objectives (Correct Order):
Feyfar provides several objectives, each requiring investigation. Be prepared for combat and consider using Savior Schnapps to save your progress:
- Examine the ore processing yard: This area is often occupied by bandits. You can choose to fight them, or quickly sprint to the objective marker and escape.
- Examine the water system: There are fewer bandits here than at the yard. Eliminate them and inspect the marked location. The chests in this area contain only tools and coal and can be ignored.
- Search the special tunnel: The entrance to this tunnel is directly below the quest marker. You'll need to persuade the guard to let you pass. A Speech skill of at least 9 is recommended.
Before Entering the Mines:
Visit the miner's camp southwest of the mines to find Nemoy. He's typically dressed in yellow and has a mustache. He might appear to be sleeping or unresponsive. Spend some time in the camp, and he should eventually become available to talk to. Question him about recent events and resolve the situation peacefully. You can choose to give him money or let him go without any payment. This choice has no significant impact on the quest's outcome.
There is also a woman in the camp you can speak with for additional information. After your experience in the mines, you will return to her and decide whether to let her go or take her to Rattay as a witness. This choice also has no significant impact on the quest's outcome.
Entering and Escaping the Skalitz Mines:
Once you've completed the preliminary objectives, you can enter the mines. Equip a torch and follow the main corridor until you reach a ladder. Climb it and continue straight. This will trigger a cutscene.Following the cutscene, your objective will be to escape the mines. You will be attacked during your escape. Due to a potential bug, killing enemies during this escape might be registered as harming innocents, negatively impacting your reputation. Therefore, it's best to avoid combat if possible.
Fastest Escape Route:
- Locate a tunnel entrance in the water and enter it. This is crucial for exiting the water area.
- Upon exiting the water, you'll reach an intersection. Turn left, follow the passage, and climb the ladder.
- At the top of the ladder, go straight through the corridor until you reach a left turn. Take this turn.
- You will then arrive at an intersection with two paths directly ahead. Take the left path.
- Continue keeping to the left on the subsequent paths until you reach the exit and escape the mines.
In short: Keep to the left whenever possible to find the exit quickly.
Returning to Rattay:
After escaping the mines, return to Rattay and speak with Master Feyfar. There are reports of bugs in this conversation. For example, Henry might report that Nemoy escaped, even if he died. However, these bugs do not affect the quest's completion. You can exhaust all dialogue options with Feyfar, especially if you have a high Speech skill (around 15 Speech, 3 Charisma, and 4 Vitality).
Crucially, you will only receive the reward for the quest if you have examined all the other objective markers (the yard, the water system, and the special tunnel).
This updated guide should provide players with a more accurate and helpful walkthrough of "The King's Silver" quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance.
