Guide: Complete Hush, My Darling Quest in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, the side quest "Hush, My Darling" begins in Miskowitz, a village in the Kuttenberg Region, west of Kuttenberg City. This quest calls upon your blacksmithing prowess to help resolve a local issue.

Speak with Martha

To kickstart the quest, head to the southeast section of Miskowitz where you'll find Martha in the house attached to the forge. Engage her in conversation and offer your assistance. When she mentions needing someone skilled in blacksmithing, respond with “I’m a blacksmith! I’d be glad to help,” to officially start “Hush, My Darling.”

For context, if you haven’t yet completed related quests, you can also talk to the bailiff about Matthew from the Dry Devil’s group, who is conveniently located next to Martha.

Craft Horseshoes

You may already possess the necessary items for this task. You'll need two Farmer’s Horseshoes, which you might have crafted earlier to improve your blacksmithing skills. If not, gather two pieces of Scrap Metal and head to the forge to create them. Once crafted, return to Martha with the horseshoes.

Find Victoria

Martha will instruct you to deliver the horseshoes to Victoria, who resides slightly south of the forge. Upon arriving at Victoria's house and opening the first door on the left, you'll discover blood instead of Victoria. Investigate the blood when prompted, then return to Martha to report your findings. She'll suggest searching for Victoria at Sigismund’s camp.

Sigismund’s Camp

Located south of Opatowitz, Sigismund’s camp might also be where you find Matthew if you're still pursuing the Dry Devil quest. At the camp, speak with the blacksmith to inquire about Victoria. He'll mention that a soldier named Black took an interest in her and directs you to the infirmary tent, where Black is currently ill.

Black will request a Digestive Potion to treat his food poisoning before he'll help you. If you don’t have one, craft it and return to administer it. Wait a few hours for the potion to take effect, after which Black will reveal that he spoke with Victoria and suggests she might have gone into the woods to the east.

Follow the quest marker to find Victoria sitting on a stump. She's upset, so choose your conversation options carefully. While your choices won't affect future events, mentioning Black's promise to look after her can offer her some hope.

Completing this conversation marks the end of “Hush, My Darling” in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. You can now proceed with the main quests or explore additional side quests like “In Vino Veritas.”
