History

In 873, the Vikings Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan and Ivarr the Boneless brought their captive, King Rhodri, towards the Stiperstones, primarily Manstone Rock. At the rock formation, Eivor witnessed Ivarr performing a Blood eagle on Rhodri. After Rhodri died from the process, Eivor started to leave but Ivarr challenged her to a fight to the death. Disturbed, Eivor rejected but Ivarr admitted that he killed Ceolbert in order to enact a battle against Rhodri and reclaim his title as "King Killer." Enraged, Eivor fought against Ivarr and, after a lengthy battle, defeated Ivarr. There, Eivor decided Ivarr's fate towards Valhalla and then carried his body from the rock, back to Caustow Castle.

Through her travels, Eivor ventured through an underground cave and found a chest. Eivor looted the chest and acquired a nickel ingot. Eivor synchronized a viewpoint atop the rock's highest peak.
