Navigating the complex investigation in Kingdom Come Deliverance during the All That Glisters quest requires sharp observational skills and strategic planning. As Henry, players are tasked with tracking down the source of counterfeit coins that threaten the economy of Bohemia. This step-by-step walkthrough outlines the crucial investigative leads, key NPC interactions, and tactical choices needed to successfully complete this main story mission.
Investigating the Initial Leads and the Mysterious Knight
The quest begins after speaking with Sir Radzig, pointing Henry toward a secret meeting point near Rovna. Upon arriving at the crossroads, players discover an ambushed wagon and a trail of blood leading to a wounded survivor held by local charcoal-burners. Interrogating the survivor triggers the arrival of a mysterious knight named Ulrich, sparking an intense horseback pursuit across the countryside.
Players must catch up to Ulrich or confront him near the Sasau pond to learn his true motivations. Defeating or persuading the knight uncovers critical documents that reveal the counterfeiters rely on rare materials like quicksilver and copper. Bringing these documents to Master Feyfar in Sasau shifts the investigation toward local artisans and suppliers.
Tracking Materials Through the Sasau Artisans
To uncover the central operation, Henry must investigate the quicksilver supply chain connected to the Sasau Monastery Overseer. Speaking with the master fresco painter reveals that someone has been hoarding quicksilver intended for artwork. Confronting the Overseer's Hand exposes his secret sales to the forgery ring, pointing Henry directly toward his contact named Rapota.
Simultaneously, investigating the local engraver leads Henry to an apprentice named Florian whose sweetheart has been kidnapped by bandits. Assisting Florian in saving his girl earns his trust and provides additional confirmation regarding Rapota's movements. Players must locate Rapota around Sasau, chase him down, and force him to divulge the location of the main forgery workshop.
Infiltrating the Skalitz Mines and Confronting Jezhek
Rapota reveals that the counterfeiters operate hidden deep within the abandoned mine shafts near Skalitz. Players can choose to bring Ulrich along for backup or navigate the hazardous mines alone to maintain complete control over the final outcome. Slipping through the dark tunnels leads directly to the secret workshop where Sir Jezhek of Ronow oversees coin production.
Upon confronting Jezhek, players face a critical decision if Ulrich is present, as the knight intends to execute the ringleader on the spot. Successful speech checks allow Henry to convince Ulrich to spare Jezhek so he can be interrogated for vital evidence. Arresting Jezhek and delivering him safely to the dungeon in Rattay successfully concludes the quest and opens the path to the next chapter of the story.
