Spears in the Ice: Interlude
Northlands, Hordaland
Silvermeade Hall
Mid Spring
Late Morning
The Jarl sits before you with two maps sprawled out upon the table. The first is the map you have all seen many times, a weathered series of parchments and leathers that the jarl has kept updated using his own household experiences and notes. It is a mess, but he seems to read it as easily as any map. The second is the map you had found dropped by a fleeing bandit two weeks prior. Between the two, it is clear what the Jarl prepares to ask of you, though he has been silent thus far.
"My huscarls are busy in the moors, and you have proved yourselves capable. I have a task for the lot of you. Track down these bandits and outlaws, and bring them to justice. I suspect that several have bounties on their heads; bring them back if you can, but don't be afraid to bring just the heads. The rest, put to the sword. This is not glorious work, but it is necessary work. You will see in time that such deeds are required to keep a hold in order. Prepare how you will, I expect this to be handled immediately."

OOC:
Millispil means Interlude, supposedly. Note, I don't actually speak Icelandic. The next chapter will likely require a little more experience from you, so let's deal with this subplot before carrying on. Don't worry, it shouldn't take long.cowleyc sent a note to cowleyc
