Visiting a dugout near the village of Maleshov is the main theme of the Man Proposes quest, from the Brushes with Death DLC. This page of the KCD 2 guide explains how to persuade the man from the dugout to have a peaceful conversation, as well as how to properly search the hut and find all the interactive traces.

How to start the quest?

- This is one of the smaller quests in the Brushes with Death DLC and you can start it after completing the larger quest, The Night-Mare, in Kuttenberg.
- Talk to Voyta in his workshop in Kuttenberg and choose to ask him about his past. It should be the second option among those marked with a purple icon (see the screenshot above).
Where to find the dugout?
- Voyta won't provide too many details, he will just send you to the dugout. It is located northeast of the village of Maleshov. It's surrounded by trees and a new mission objective will appear there upon arrival.

Upon reaching your destination, you'll find out that a man lives there. After you approach him, the old man will attack Henry. You can handle it in two ways:
- Defeat the man from dugout - this could lead to his death, which is the worse ending.
- Surrendering after starting the fight - you have to choose the appropriate option from the interaction menu (ALT on the keyboard). This is a better option because it will allow you to actually talk to the man and learn some important information about Voyta.
- At the end of the conversation, the man from the dugout can give you the Madman's broken sword (if you've killed the man, just grab it off his corpse). You can pass this item on to Voyta later on.
How to examine the dugout?
You are now in for a search of the dugout together with the man. He won't attack you anymore. You need to examine the following things:
- The tree construction;
- Damaged roof of the dugout;
- Wolf's heart inside the dugout (you don't have to take it).
After the mission objective is updated, return to the painter. While speaking to him, you may discover his true identity. You will unlock a new symbol to paint on the shield and you will also be able to start the next quest, God Disposes, which involves locating and visiting a grave.
