The Reeve of Wincestre was a virtual representation of one of Eivor Varinsdottir's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Eivor travelled to Wincestre to meet the contact who sent the letter to Ravensthorpe.
After reviewing the letter that arrived after the troubles in Jorvik, Eivor talked with Randvi about pledging to the city.
Eivor headed out of Ravensthorpe and sought out the man in white. After a long journey deep into enemy territory, Eivor arrived in Wincestre.
Eivor located the large Old Minster, the God's house from the letter, and made her way to its front steps.
As Eivor walked into the minster, she heard a holy man speaking.
Eivor spoke with the man in white, the priest Sigebeald.
Skipping the lesson, Sigebeald led Eivor upstairs to the real person who corresponded with her.
Eivor restarted the order.
With the lesson done, Sigebeald led Eivor upstairs to the real person who corresponded with her.
Sigebeald showed Eivor a room and walked away. Eivor entered and heard a voice from behind a shelf laden with texts and scrolls.
Eivor walked behind the shelf to greet the source of the voice, who was revealed to be King Aelfred.
King Aelfred walked to a nearby desk and presented Eivor a letter.
Rather than agree immediately, Eivor briefly entertained the idea of leaving Aelfred to his fate.
Rather than agree immediately, Eivor briefly entertained the idea of leaving Aelfred to his fate.
King Aelfred sighed.
Eivor nodded and took her leave.
Eivor left to find Goodwin.
Arriving at Goodwin's home, Eivor caught sight of guards looking around his home
Eivor took care of the guards wandering around the house. Additionally, she may have found a manifesto nailed to its exterior wall.
The Quill's Manifesto
Investigating inside Goodwin's house, Eivor found a letter near the fireplace and signs of disturbance.
A half-burned letter
Eivor went upstairs and found more signs of struggle.
Leaving Goodwin's home, Eivor located and arrived at Wincestre Garrison. She may have found another copy of The Quill's writings nailed to the wall outside the garrison entrance.
Inside the garrison, Eivor found a bunch of prisoners locked in wooden cages and moved to free them.
She opened the cages one at a time and spoke with the prisoners.
Eivor spied the entrance to the garrison keep but needed a key to unlock its front door. While the stronger prisoners fought the garrison guards, Eivor found the key and breach the inner keep.
Investigating the central building, Eivor found a text about Selwyn.
Eivor also found a collection of research.
Goodwin's Research
On the bottom level of the building, Eivor found three holding cells. Opening the middle door, Eivor found a tied up Goodwin, then freed him.
Eivor and Goodwin escaped the garrison.
Eivor spoke with Goodwin outside the garrison.
Eivor handed Goodwin his research.
She handed Goodwin the manifesto, which he read.
Eivor stood and took her leave of Goodwin, making her way immediately to her target in the city square.
After agreeing to help Alfred, Eivor went and saved his reeve, Goodwin. Eivor and Goodwin talked about the Wincestre targets and deduced The Gallows was Reeve Selwyn. Goodwin asked Eivor to stop Selwyn and she went to find and assassinate him.
Unlocking the pledge to Wincestre, and therefore this memory and its succedent memories, requires only the completion of the Jorvik and Oxenefordscire arcs. The former comes from the fixed progression of Hytham's pledges from Lunden to Jorvik to here, and the latter comes from being the game narrative's introduction point for Aelfred. In spite of the gap in region level, it is possible to undertake this arc even before completing the Suthsexe arc, and the initial dialogue between Eivor and Aelfred will change accordingly.
