After her findings, Eivor confronted [[Harriet]], Ealhferth's sister, about the false funeral and Harriet relented. Harriet confessed that Ealhferth went to "convince" Aelfred to step down at the [[Witan Hall]]. Knowing better, Eivor broke into the locked witan and watched from above, looking for the bishop. In midst of Aelfred's speech, Ealhferth announced his attack, but not before Eivor came down and assassinated him. After his death, Eivor attained the penultimate clue from his personal effects.

The first clue stated that The Rake wears black.

Around 877, in Wincestre, from the death of Reeve Selwyn, The Gallows, the third clue about The Rake was recovered. This clue detailed that The Rake is hidden behind the act of doing God's work.[2] Afterwards, the death of The Quill, Hilda, occured as her death provided another clue of The Rake.

Trivia

  • Blaeswith's cutscene in the Memory Corridor is quite brief, when compared to the cutscenes of other Maegesters, such as Fulke or Gorm Kjotvesson.
    • It is unknown if she had a hand with the events in Wincestre, as she was in charge of the three particular members, who were working to kill King Aelfred.
  • Like The Crozier towards The Billhook, Blaeswith took on Beneseck, The Bell, as an apprentice. However, her methods of guidance were more torturous and psychologically abusive than The Crozier's.
  • Along with Order members, The Crozier, The Leech, The Firebrand, and Bishop Ealhferth, Sister Blaeswith never believed in God but rather hid her beliefs of the true Gods.
