	Due to the [[A New Home\|settlement growth]] mechanics, all speaking NPCs that do not initially join the Raven Clan after [[Settling Down\|settling down]] in England—e.g. Petra and ~~Tarben—will~~ always be present by this point in the story, as building the blacksmith's forge and completing the pledge to [[East Anglia]] will yield ~~enough~~ renovation points ~~to force~~ Ravensthorpe to ~~reach Level~~ 2 long before completing Suthsexe. Even if ~~their~~ respective buildings have not been renovated, they will still join the clan insofar as their plots of land are cleared and their initial tents pitched. It is possible to stay ~~below Level 3~~ by simply refusing to renovate more buildings, and ~~thus the arrival of [[Valka]]—who~~ does not ~~attend~~ the feast even if ~~present—is not required~~.		Due to the [[A New Home\|settlement growth]] mechanics, all speaking NPCs that do not initially join the Raven Clan after [[Settling Down\|settling down]] in England—e.g. Petra, Tarben, and Octavian—will always be present by this point in the story, as building the blacksmith's forge and completing the pledge to [[East Anglia]] will yield 3 renovation points, which will boost Ravensthorpe to Settlement Renown level 2 long before completing Suthsexe. Even if the residents' respective buildings have not been renovated, they will still join the clan insofar as their plots of land are cleared and their initial tents pitched. [[Valka]] does not [[A Wise Friend\|arrive]] until Renown level 3, but it is technically possible to stay under that level by simply refusing to renovate more buildings beyond the forge, and she does not participate in the feast even if moved in.

	~~While this~~ memory is active, no facilities or activities at Ravensthorpe ~~are~~ available~~. [[Gunnar]] is also not present in the settlement~~, ~~having left for the [[The First Night of Samhain\|upcoming]] story arc~~ that ~~heavily involves him. Renovations can still be completed, although any "thank you" comments from the respective residents will be skipped until visiting later,~~ as ~~they are attending the feast. Any renovation that involves a cutscene—e.g. the~~ [[~~Hunter's Hut~~]], ~~the~~ [[~~Fishing Hut]], and~~ the ~~[[Bakery, Ravensthorpe\|bakery~~]]~~—will simply fade to black~~, and the ~~cutscene will play~~ the ~~next time~~ Eivor ~~walks near those buildings. In a situation where multiple cutscenes are queued, Tarben's~~ [[~~The Baker~~'s ~~Plaint\|bakery renovation~~]] ~~appears to take precedence, with Eivor teleporting to~~ the ~~bakery after waking up. Valka's cutscene for her [[In Dreams..~~.~~\|seer's hut renovation]]~~ will ~~play normally even while~~ the ~~feast event~~ is ~~active~~, ~~although~~ the ~~potion to explore Eivor's dreams cannot~~ be ~~consumed. Lastly, [[Mundi]] is still available~~ to ~~play [[Orlog]] if the [[Barracks, Ravensthorpe\|barracks]] have been built~~.		This specific memory, despite being connected to the Suthsexe arc, is filed under the "Ravensthorpe" section of the quest log, and it has secondary effects on other Ravensthorpe quests while it is active. Namely, no facilities or activities at Ravensthorpe will be available, and memories that launch side content—such as [[A Distorted Dream]], [[A Gift from the Otherworld]], and the conversation at the riverbank that leads Eivor to discover [[Manius's Sanctum]]—will be outright removed from the journal if they were not fully completed beforehand. They will be re-added when the memory is completed, but if they were not advanced to certain stages, the previously-exhausted dialogues will be effectively reset to square one.

	Upon returning to Ravensthorpe, the longship ~~crew including~~ any special raiders ~~recruited during the main story—such~~ as [[Birna]] and [[Finnr]]—may walk up to the longhouse, but they will not be present upon a reload ~~or after the cutscene in which Sigurd yells at Eivor~~; instead, they will be back at the longship.		Renovations can be completed while the memory is active, however any "thank you" comments from the respective residents will be suspended until they are back from the feast. Any renovation that includes a cutscene—specifically the [[Hunter's Hut]], the [[Fishing Hut]], and the [[Bakery, Ravensthorpe\|bakery]]—will fade to black, and the cutscene will play the next time Eivor walks near those buildings. If the cutscene for Tarben's [[The Baker's Plaint\|bakery renovation]] is queued in this way, Eivor will teleport to the bakery after waking up, though much of the dialogue may be skipped over. Valka's cutscene for her [[In Dreams...\|seer's hut renovation]] will play normally, although the potion to explore Eivor's dreams cannot be consumed. Lastly, [[Mundi]] is still available to play [[Orlog]] if the [[Barracks, Ravensthorpe\|barracks]] have been built.

			Upon returning to Ravensthorpe, the longship crew—including any special raiders such as [[Bjorn Bloodtooth\|Bjorn]], [[Birna]], and [[Finnr]]—may walk up to the longhouse and join the feast, but they will not be present upon a save and reload; instead, they will be back at the longship with no way to bring them back up to the feast.

	For some reason, Holger may decide to walk home during the feast while he talks, instead of sitting down on his stool. This will require the player to reload the game until he sits down properly, or to chase him outside and stay in range to exhaust his dialogue, before the succedent dialogues can play.
