Mightier than the Sword Kingdom Come: Deliverance Quest
Group: Side Quests
Location: Uzhitz
You can start this quest asking the Bailiff of Rattay a question about who can teach you how to read. The easiest way to do this is at the end of the Train Hard, Fight Easy main story quest.
They say the pen is mightier than the sword. Maybe it's time I learned to read.
Quest objectives of Mightier than the Sword
1. Visit the Scribe in Uzhitz.
2. Get the money for the Scribe.
I'd like to learn to read, but it doesn't come free - the Scribe wants a whole 50 Groschen for it. It seems the pen really is mightier than the sword! I'll just have to get the coin for it somehow.
The Scribe wants money for teaching me to read. I managed to get it together.
3. Read the book.
There's a book on the Scribe’s table. I can try out what I’ve learned.
I managed the first reading lesson and even my first test. I read a simple book the Scribe gave me.
4. Go back to the Scribe.
I should let the Scribe know what I've read.
The actual reading is sometimes the easiest part. What's more difficult is understanding the point of the text, which the Scribe says I managed well.
5. Read the Latin text.
No sooner had I leared the basics than the Scribe hit me with Latin text. I have to read the page he gave me.
The next test was in reading Latin, which I speak as well as the average goose, but at least I could have a go at deciphering the letters. I didn't need to understand the text, just remember the words I read.
6. Go back to the Scribe.
I read the Latin text. Now I have to go back to the Scribe.
I recited the Latin text I read to the Scribe, and he seemed quite satisfied. He told me he had nothing more to teach me. I have now joined the men of letters.
7. Quest completed.
