| | Eivor reached the [[Anglo-Saxons|Anglo-Saxon]] refugee camp outside [[Quatford]] near the river and saw some of them sitting near a camp fire. |
| | *'''Anglo-Saxon Man:''' ''Friend or foe?'' |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''Friends, peace. I was told you might know where the Britons bring in their supplies.'' |
| | The man stood up, distrustful of Eivor's claim. |
| | *'''Anglo-Saxon Man:''' ''Are we your friends, [[Denmark|Dane]]?'' |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''I woud have it so.'' |
| | *'''Anglo-Saxon Man:''' ''After years of blood and gore, [[Raid|looting and burning]], forgive us if we don't trust a Dane.'' |
| | <tabber> |
| | |-|Here are the facts.= |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''In [[Rhodri the Great|Rhodri]] we share a common enemy. My only wish is to destroy his supply line and bring him to the table, begging for a truce. Once we have peace, you and your kin will no longer walk this land in wretchedness.'' |
| | *'''Anglo-Saxon Man:''' ''What you say is good sense. Very well, Dane. Here's what I know.'' |
| | |-|I've known your plight.= |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''Yes, I imagine you've known sword, fire, and death. That you have lost those close to you.'' |
| | The man lowered his head in mourning. |
| | *'''Anglo-Saxon Man:''' ''All of us have.'' |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''I have known that pain. It brought me to [[England]] to start anew. But Rhodri and his Britons stand in my way, as they stand in yours.'' |
| | *'''Anglo-Saxon Man:''' ''I understand you well. Perhaps I spoke in haste.'' |
| | |-|I have no right to ask for help.= |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''As a [[Norse people|Norse]], I know I have little right to ask for your help. But I'm fighting to bring this war to an end.'' |
| | *'''Anglo-Saxon Man:''' ''If you're truly fighting that devil Rhodri, I'll tell you what I know.'' |
| | </tabber> |
| | *'''Anglo-Saxon Man:''' ''The Britons move their goods through [[Dhustone Quarry]]. See that tower to the south? That's the [[Hill Gate Remnants]]. Further on you'll find the stone quarry.'' |
| | Eivor looked as the man pointed to a distant tower on the hill. |
| | <tabber> |
| | |-|Quarry not ransacked= |
| | * '''Eivor:''' ''Thank you.'' |
| | *'''Anglo-Saxon Man:''' ''Hold a moment. If you need extra help...'' |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''I may...'' |
| | *'''Anglo-Saxon Man:''' ''Good [[Mercia]]n men are [[Slavery|working]] in that quarry. They all fought for ''[[thegn]]'' [[Merton (ealdorman)|Merton]]. If you find yourself in a pitched fight, call out his name in praise. The workers will rally to you.'' |
| | * '''Eivor:''' ''"God bless Thegn Merton." Understood.'' |
| | On a table nearby, there was a note. |
| | :'''Farewell Letter:'''<br>''Arleigh, it's up to you to look after your brother and sister while I'm off fighting the Britons. You're the oldest and you've a good head on your shoulders.<br><br> I wish your mum was still with us, but alas. Begging's your last chance. Watch that Osred and Inga don't get into too much mischief. <br><br>Da.'' |
| | [[File:ACV The Supply Line 3.png|thumb|250px|Eivor arriving at the quarry]] |
| | Eivor then tracked the location of the quarry, passing by the ruined tower, and eventually using [[Sýnin]] to find it in a valley near it. |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''Dhustone Quarry, filled with Briton supply carts. Once I burn those, it will push Rhodri to peace.'' |
| | She infiltrated the camp, assassinating Briton [[soldier]]s and freeing some of their prisoners along the way. |
| | *'''Orlaf:''' ''Let me out. I want to fight these bastards.'' |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''[[Deorlaf]] asked me to free the prisoners to strengthen our'' {{Wiki|fyrd}}''.'' |
| | In one of the camps siding the quarry's central depression, she found a written note on a table. |
| | :'''Report - Prisoner Labor:'''<br>''[[Ynyr ap Cadfarch|Ynyr]],<br><br> We've put the captured Saxons to work in the quarry.<br><br>They are bitter because we killed their leider. I have never seen men work so slowly.<br><br>I will increase punitive measures until they cheer up.<br><br>-Cymen'' |
| | Eivor saw another caged group of warriors and released them too. |
| | *'''Eadric:''' ''For the love of Saint [[Cuthbert of Lindisfarne|Cuthbert]], free me!'' |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''These men will fight for us.'' |
| | She inspired the freed prisoners. |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''[[Shropshire|Sciropecire]] needs you.'' |
| | :If Eivor was detected by the soldiers and informed of Thegn Merton, she called out the signal phrase. |
| | :*'''Eivor:''' ''God bless Thegn Merton!'' |
| | :The miners responded to her call, gathering across her, building her forces and helping in the fight. |
| | :* '''Anglo-Saxon Man:''' ''For Thegn Merton, lads!'' |
| | :* '''Eivor:''' ''Merton's men, fight with me!'' |
| | On the mined rock formations at the center of the quarry, she found another note. |
| | :'''Report - Prisoners Taken:'''<br>''Ynyr,<br><br> We have captured some Saxons as you ordered. They do nothing but shit and complain. Request permission to cut their throats.<br><br>-Cymen'' |
| | Amidst the confusion at the quarry, Eivor encountered the supply carts and burned them down, causing them to explode. The group eventually killed all the soldiers present. |
| | |-|Quarry already ransacked= |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''The quarry south of the tower? [[Thor]] must smile on me today. I have already destroyed the supplies there. Thank you for your time.'' |
| | </tabber> |
| | With the quarry task complete, Eivor reflected on the next task ahead of her. |
| | <tabber> |
| | |-|Completed after Ransacking Wenlocan= |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''There we are. The quarry and Wenlocan, both done. That should shake Rhodri to his senses. Now to Wesberie before Ivarr causes more problems.'' |
| | |-|Completed before Ransacking Wenlocan= |
| | * '''Eivor:''' ''That's done. Off to Wenlocan Outpost and the Briton cargo.'' |
