Maeldun's Saltern Camp

Maeldun's Saltern Camp

Maeldun's Saltern Camp was a Anglo-Saxon camp in 9th century eastern Essexe. Within the camp, there are a series of pools where the seawater is left to evaporate to create salt.

History

In the 870s, the Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan traveled to Maeldun's Saltern Camp to investigate and find information about the business of the Weever fish supply. Upon her investigation, Eivor found herself inside a warehouse and probed on its second floor. On a table, Eivor found a clue and discovered the identity of an Order member called The Sickle: Heika of Friesland. The information detailed that Heika worked in Colcestre as a baker and used the Weever fish scales to poison Order targets. With this information, Eivor left the camp.

Through her travels, Eivor further investigated Maeldun's Saltern Camp and found a chest within the camp. However, the chest was locked thus Eivor sought to find its key. Coincidentally, Eivor found a soldier holding both the key and wealth itself. Defeating the soldier, Eivor obtained the key and a Nickel ingot. Afterwards, Eivor later opened the chest and collected another Nickel ingot.
