Kingdom Come: Deliverance tasks players with filling the shoes of a blacksmith's son, who experiences a great tragedy in the initial stages of the game. While the introduction is quite grim, there are opportunities for Henry to do some good in among all the bad.

One such opportunity is associated with one of the game's key characters, Theresa, who Henry will find in immediate danger in the second main quest of the game. Players looking to fill their achievement lists will be particularly interested in this event, so this guide will explain how to rescue Theresa in Kingdom Come: Deliverance and earn the Cavalier trophy.

How To Rescue Theresa in Kingdom Come: Deliverance

Rescuing Theresa in Kingdom Come: Deliverance is by no means a difficult objective to complete, but it is one that can be easily missed or simply mishandled. A big reason for this is that players are still very much being introduced to the game, so it is easy to simply run past her during her time of peril, or unsuccessfully chance your arm at taking down half a dozen Cumans. In reality, it is a really simple task and one of the easiest trophies to earn in the game.

To save Theresa, players simply need to press the indicated button for Henry to whistle for a horse (on PlayStation, this is the Triangle button). What makes this all the more simple is that approaching one of the nearby horses will trigger a pop-up that explains how to whistle for your horse and how to mount one, which are the same button. Ensure you are not too close to a horse that you mount it, and you will whistle for it instead. The noise will attract the attention of the soldiers, who will abandon Theresa, allowing her to get away, and begin pursuing you instead. You will know you are successful, as the Cavalier achievement will unlock as soon as the soldiers divert their focus from Theresa, which allows her to hide from her attackers.

What Happens If You Don't Rescue Theresa?

While Theresa is in a lot of danger at the hands of some murderous soldiers, players will be relieved to hear that one of Henry's potential romance options in the game won't die if he fails to act swiftly. So, this isn't a compulsory rescue, but it's not particularly polite to just leave her there.

The most notable difference in the game is the initial dialogue Henry has with another love interest, Lady Stephanie, as he recounts his story to her in the middle of the night. If he rescues Theresa, it will be included in his tale, which will be well received by Stephanie, who applauds Henry for his bravery.
