Warwick Burh
Warwick Burh was a fortress constructed on the River Avon, England. In 872 CE, one of the area's wealthiest merchant families lived in it.
History
In 872, the Order of the Ancients captain Aleksi led an expedition to the fortress, having tracked down a Shroud of Eden to the location. He brought along with him a contingent of some Order members and two dozen mercenaries to help in his endeavours. After locating the Shroud, Aleksi shut himself away in a tower to study the artifact. Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan, accompanied by a few allies, infiltrated the burh looking for the Piece of Eden and eventually finding Aleksi in a room covered in writings and calculations. Although Juno's consciousness in the Shroud possessed Aleksi and made him attack the group, they defeated him and managed to recover the item.[1]
Behind the scenes
Historically, the burh at Warwick would only be built around 914 under orders from Queen Æthelflæd of Mercia.[2]
