Warwick Burh was a fortress constructed on the River Avon, England. In 872 CE, it served as the residence of one of the wealthiest merchant families in the area.

History

In the same year, Aleksi, a captain of the Order of the Ancients, led an expedition to the fortress, having tracked down a Shroud of Eden to the location. He brought along with him a contigent of some Order members and two dozen mercenaries to help in his endeavours. After the Shroud was located, Aleksi shut himself away in a tower to study the artifact. Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan, accompannied by a few allies, infiltrated the burh looking for the Piece of Eden, eventually finding Aleksi in a room covered in writings and calculations. Though attacked by an Aleksi being controlled by the conciousness of Juno from the Shroud, the group managed to recover the item.

Behind the scenes

Historically, the burh at Warwick would only be built around 914, under orders of Æthelflæd, Lady of the Mercians.
