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 introducing the Kuttenberg region, demands a sneaky approach. The circumstances are stacked against you; you'll start with depleted health, stamina, and without your usual armor, weapons, or even Saviour Schnapps.

Fortunately, you can recover some basic gear from the guards Katherine dispatched while freeing you. It's not top-tier equipment, but it's better than nothing, especially Katherine's dagger, which is perfect for stealth kills. Your first objective is the top of the Crone in Trosky. While guards patrol the route, they're spaced sufficiently to allow for stealth takedowns or clever distractions to bypass them.

Atop the Crone, you'll confront Istvan Toth. This encounter doesn't affect the quest's ultimate outcome, so choosing the dishonorable option is viable if combat isn't your strong suit (given your weakened state). Fighting Toth directly is risky due to your low health. After dealing with Toth, thoroughly search the room for everyone's belongings and secure the vital documents.

With Toth subdued and your possessions recovered, return to the dungeon to reunite with your companions. They'll equip themselves and reveal the escape tunnels, making this part of the quest surprisingly straightforward. Simply follow them.

The truly challenging part of "Storm" begins now: navigating the hills undetected. Maintaining low conspicuousness is critical; detection triggers alarms, resulting in multiple enemy encounters. Your weakened stats further complicate matters, making stealth kills and knockouts more difficult.

Initially, take the uphill path to the right, leading to a larger, but heavily guarded, route. This path, however, takes you to Mika's location. Stealthily eliminate the guard, free Mika, and receive directions for the next objective. This secures your progress and provides crucial guidance.

The final leg requires sustained stealth. Follow Mika's instructions, visiting the marked locations on your map. Head east and southeast towards the Apollonia main road, then south, hugging the edges and utilizing bushes for cover. The marked area is larger than it appears; reaching the halfway point triggers the ending cutscene. Utilize stones to distract guards as needed. Once the cutscene plays, your role in this section concludes, and your journey continues in the Kuttenberg region.

"Storm" uniquely necessitates stealth, unlike many other quests in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. Investing in stealth skills beforehand is highly beneficial. *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
