Welcome to NGB and our Kingdom Come Deliverance walkthrough for the Mightier than the Sword quest! Here you’ll find everything you’ll need to easily breeze through this quest.

How to Start Mightier Than the Sword

In order to start Mightier Than the Sword, travel to the Apothecary in Rattay and speak with him. Select the option “Who can teach me to read?” to which the Apothecary will direct Henry to a scribe in Uzhitz.

Mightier than the Sword Overview

Quest Giver: Rattay Priest / Rattay Bailiff

Summary: After asking around in Rattay, Henry hears that there is a scribe in Uzhitz who can teach him how to read.

Objective(s):

Speak to the scribe in Uzhitz

Follow the quest objective to Uzhitz to find the scribe and talk to him. The scribe agrees to teach Henry to read for 50 groschen and tells Henry that it will take a couple of days to train him. Give the scribe the 50 groschen to begin the training.

Read the book

Henry’s first task will be to read a book about a goose that lays golden eggs. When your done reading the book, head back to the scribe and speak with him.

Go back to the scribe

The scribe will ask you what the book is about. The correct dialog option is Being greedy doesn’t pay. Time will pass and the scribe will tell Henry to read another book in Latin.

Read the book

Sit down at the table and interact with the book to read it. Unless you know Latin, the book will not make sense to you.  Head back to the scribe and speak to him.

Go back to the scribe

He will ask you what you just read. The correct answer is the one that doesn’t have any English words in it, so it’s the middle dialog option. This completes the Mightier than the Sword quest, and Henry will unlock the reading skill.
