Stealth is paramount in completing certain quests within *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, and "Storm" is a prime example. This quest, crucial for wrapping up the Trosky region storyline and ushering you into Kuttenberg, demands a stealthy approach. Your weakened state—low health, no armor, weapons, or Saviour Schnapps—following your imprisonment sets the stage for a challenging, but rewarding, stealth mission.

Begin by acquiring some basic equipment from the guards Katherine dispatched during your prison break. It's minimal, but better than nothing. Katherine also provides her dagger, essential for silent takedowns. Your objective: the top of the Crone in Trosky. While guards patrol the route, they're spaced sufficiently to allow for stealth kills or strategic distractions and careful maneuvering.
Atop the Crone, you confront Istvan Toth. This encounter doesn't directly impact the quest's optimal ending, so choosing the dishonorable option is viable if combat feels risky. Given your weakened condition, a duel is highly dangerous. After subduing Toth, thoroughly search the room for everyone's belongings and secure the vital documents.

With Toth dealt with and belongings recovered, return to the dungeon. Your companions will re-equip and reveal the escape route through the tunnels—a relatively straightforward section of the quest. Simply follow them.

The truly challenging part of "Storm" begins now: navigating the hills undetected. Maintaining low conspicuousness is critical; detection triggers alarms and multiple enemy encounters. Your weakened state further complicates stealth kills or knockouts.
Take the uphill path to the right, leading to a larger, heavily patrolled route. This path, however, takes you to Mika's capture location. Neutralize the guard, free Mika, and receive crucial directions to your next objective.

The final leg requires sustained stealth. Follow Mika's instructions to the locations marked on your map, then head east and southeast toward the Apollonia main road. Maintain a low profile, using the cover of bushes to avoid detection. While the marked area appears vast, you only need to proceed about halfway to trigger the ending cutscene. Utilize stones to distract guards as needed. The cutscene concludes your role in this segment, leading you to the Kuttenberg region.
"Storm" uniquely necessitates stealth, unlike many other quests in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. Prioritizing stealth skill upgrades before this quest is highly recommended.
*Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.*
