The Seed For Jerusalem.

I infiltrated Earl's camp, blended in and cleared guards silently. After executing Earl during his speech, his fleeing warriors distracted Al Si'la. When Al Si'la tried to trick Eivor, Roshan ambushed her from above, securing a relic destined for Jerusalem before bidding Eivor farewell.

Infiltrating the camp, I closed in on Earl while he was busy rallying his men. To avoid raising alarms, I blended in by performing chores around the area, posing as one of his warriors.

Rather than rushing straight into the fight, I began clearing out nearby guards. I pulled one target into a haystack, driving my hidden blade through his head, and dropped another guard standing nearby with a single arrow shot.

With the surrounding guards cleared out, I moved into position to strike Earl. Crouching in the shadows near his platform, I listened to part of his speech before making my move.

Stepping out of the darkness, Eivor executed Earl directly in front of his troops. Standing over the body, Eivor called out to the remaining warriors, asking if they were ready to die like Vikings. Shaken by the sudden death of their leader, the soldiers scattered and fled the camp.

The chaos drew Al Si'la out from her room. Pretending to be relieved that Earl was dead, she motioned for Eivor to come closer while concealing a knife behind her back.

Before she could strike, Roshan dropped down from a tree branch directly above, driving her blade into Al Si'la and ending the witch on the spot.

Regrouping back at the tower, Eivor praised the victory, though Roshan admitted the encounter left her with an unsettling feeling. She explained that Al Shilla was merely a stepping stone.

Roshan was holding up a mysterious relic retrieved from the body, a seed destined for Jerusalem. Recognizing that Roshan still had a long path ahead, she left Eivor behind.

Eivor watched as she bid her farewells and departed, bringing the quest (The Raven and the Cuckoo) to a closing. So yeah, this quest that I thought was a mere side quest, became a big part of the concept.

That's all for now.
