In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, the main story quest "Necessary Evil" presents a challenging moral dilemma. This guide helps you navigate the choices you'll face when deciding whether to support Semine or Hashek.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Necessary Evil Quest Walkthrough

Following the "Back in the Saddle" quest, "Necessary Evil" begins. Von Bergow tasks Hans and Henry with gathering intelligence from Nebakov Fortress, followed by the interrogation of a prisoner. The interrogation's outcome significantly impacts whether von Bergow targets Semine or Nebakov. This walkthrough focuses on the Semine path, where the most difficult choices arise.

Prisoner Interrogation Answers

Prisoner Interrogation

Successful interrogation relies on Speech checks. Threaten or use torture; the choice is yours. Speech check requirements:

  • “We’ll put in a good word for you.” (20 Impression)
  • “Istvan and I are old acquaintances.” (20 Impression)
  • “Otherwise, it’ll end badly for you.” (17 Intimidation)

The interrogation reveals the bandit leader's identity and Semine's involvement. When reporting to von Bergow, you can either expose Semine's collaboration with bandits, leading to an attack on the town, or deny Semine's involvement, resulting in an attack on Nebakov.

Should You Attack Semine or Nebakov?

Attacking Semine leads to more complex decisions involving Hashek. Attacking Nebakov concludes the quest immediately, avoiding the bloodshed at Semine. While avoiding Semine's consequences might seem preferable, ignoring Semine's actions, which resulted in innocent deaths, isn't morally ideal. Attacking Semine, despite knowing the townspeople, felt like the right choice for maintaining moral consistency. Note: Staying with the party during the ride to Semine is crucial; otherwise, the town will be slaughtered.

Should You Side With Semine or Hashek?

Semine vs. Hashek

Before the attack, conversing with Hashek reveals his desire for revenge against Semine and a ruthlessly violent approach.

Choosing to side with Hashek ("Hashek is right") results in widespread carnage. Siding with Semine ("Olda deserves a trial") prevents further unnecessary bloodshed. Maintaining a morally good character arc, siding with Semine felt appropriate, preventing Hashek's indiscriminate slaughter. After defeating Hashek, advise the Semines to burn their estate and flee to progress the quest.

Should You Tell von Bergow or Let Hans Talk?

Finally, Henry and Hans report to von Bergow. You can remain silent, letting Hans speak, or reveal the events at Semine. Silence and letting Hans speak maintains favor with von Bergow, as Hans' diplomacy leads to von Bergow planning his next move against Nebakov.
