Navigating the quests in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* can sometimes feel like wandering through a maze. But don't worry, we've got you covered. This guide shows you exactly how to obtain the elusive Royal Treasury Key during the Oratores quest.
Oratores, a lengthy main quest in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, unfolds after conversations with Rosa and Zizka. Once you've secured Vavak's assistance with the planned theft, your next objective is retrieving the Royal Treasury Key. This is where things get interesting.
The key's hiding place? The outhouse (or, shall we say, the privy) in the backyard of Vavak's house. Check out the map screenshot below for a clear visual.
Head into the outhouse and interact with the toilet bowl. You'll see an "Investigate" prompt appear. Click it, and Henry will retrieve the key—simple as that! However, a word of caution: this unsanitary retrieval will leave Henry less than pristine. We strongly recommend washing up at a nearby trough before continuing the quest to avoid issues with dialogue checks and NPC interactions.
With the Royal Treasury Key in hand, you can resume the quest by speaking with Zizka and Rosa once more, before embarking on the exploration of the underground passages with Samuel. Keep in mind, this quest is far from over; prepare for a considerable journey ahead.
And there you have it—your guide to obtaining the Royal Treasury Key during the Oratores quest in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*.
