Meeting Lords and Making Deals.

Lord Glover, did not come himself but sent his heir Galbart who from what Elder Asmund said that he is for how lords go pretty decent. Lord Galbart rode toward us with 60 men-at-arms.

Elder Asmund-"Mi'Lord Glover, welcome to Eskigarðr I am sad to say that you are almost a week late, for the fight. But the Old Gods where with us as Patriarch Halvard Maelstrom but I'll explain more inside Halvards home as it has the most room for all your men."

"Aye Elder Asmund, Me and my men were expecting to find a burned down vilalge and search for survivers, but this is a welcome surprise And hello Clan leader Halvard Maelstrom. My family owes you a thanks for saving this village."

Elder Asmund-"Aye that's true Mi'lord Glover he and his clan happened to be traveling by and was attacked. We made a deal that if his people helped we would welcome them into the village. But I will will let Halvard tell the rest of his story."

"First, here have some drink this is Fire Whisky the recipe has been on my family for generations. But as for my story, me and my clan happens to be traveling near here and we were ambushed by wildings then we immediately rode here to alert them. Asmund and I made a deal that if my people helped fight he would give us access to 25 Acres of land. As for the fighting I will let the Elder. But as for what we are doing here I have sent out word to all my clans members to gather here to settle, and grow. Eventually we shall open up a place of education like Citadel but they are free to leave when ever they choose and have children. But they can learn anything from shipbuilding, healing, blacksmithing, and almost any martial skill. As for the clan it self you may call upon us for maintaining order here in the North in times of peace or at times of war we will fight by your side. To prove our intentions I offer you to stay here for a couple of days and you are welcome to use my Falcon Minerva to alert your father."

"Hmmm, that is intriguing I will alert my father of your actions and I will encourage him to "legitimize" your house to be a master house, but that is up to him and Lord Stark. And I will stay here for a couple of days."

Elder Asmund the. Processed to go into a report on the battle how we and her palisades and our battle techniques. He did let it slip about magic to which Lord Glover skeptical, so we took him to the construction site for the wall and ship yard.

"I understand that you are skeptical Lord Glover but yes me and my Clan can use magic, but this should be proof enough. OSMOND get that support beam raised and put on a show we. have important Guests here."

As Osmond brandished his wand and cast *Podnieść Się* then a 20 foot long support beam raised into the air as two more men are on top of the home guide it down. The process is then repeated for the other beams. Next a team of workers cast *Endurbyggja* as a mass of shingles and nails are fitted into place.

"Now come in side the work is still not done"

On the inside a team of workers are placing down a basic Ward stone and rune paths in the house.

"This is a ward stone, and the basic variant, all the home in the walled area have the same one. First they prevent fire from spreading, clean air, heating, and lighting. The main house you are staying in have even more advanced one. For example in addition to the previous mentioned wards, we have mapping wards that give an exact location of who is in my home, waste removal, and anti theft. The light is my favorite one watch this *Light on* and scones on the wall light up. Now do you believe me Lord Glover."

-Hidden quest complete-

-Revealed magic to Northern Lords-

-Rewards: 200 Gold and a group of Landvættir (Nature-Spirts), and a pair of brownies-

————————————————————————————————————————————

Landvættir- Norse nature spirts that shall protect the farm and woods of our land from man and nature. They will scare off wildings, prevent fires, and regulate the use of the woods.

Brownies- Household spirts that will help, look out for intruders and help clean. They are way more temperamental than house Elves and must be respected or they will cause more harm than good.

————————————————————————————————————————————

The Landvættir can appear in a variety of forms some look like ents with long mossy beards with deep baritone voices, others short with deep green skin that and long fingers that allow them to climb trees. The last are 8 to 9 ft tall beings that are the kindest for the group who love to have stories read to them which the children the village have found out and one specific girl who has bonded quite well. She has gone so far as to showed signs of being a natural Druid.

Her name is Eldrid the first true magic user of the North.

As for the Brownies, they are nice to have around they may not be as useful as house Elves but they have a different skill set. They are nice to have around in that they keep watch over the servants and have even helped keep the home clean. So long as we leave them a dinner out each night, say thank you to them for their hard work, and do NOT give them clothes.

We of course warned Lord Glover and his men to not agitate them and to follow the rules. Thankfully they only tested it once because when waking up with a bucket of ice cold as water dumped on you by a small gnome looking man yelling at you in a language you don't understand make you listen.

5 Day time skip-5 years till Greyjoy rebellion-15 till canon.

But besides getting the magic settlers home made and their workshops made up. With the 50 I summoned 30 are some type of food worker, 10 are crafts people carpenters, smiths, stones mansions, the final 10 are general laborers for builders.

With the planting done, we began our ship building for fishing and local trade here in the Bay of ice to Sea Dragons Point. We were using long ships with better sails design for fishing, and sloops for trade. The ships all are enchanted with a variety of enchantments to enhance the vessel, the basic set for fishing have, water repealing to replace copper bottoms, anti storm, and locator beacons. For trade ships besides the previous mentioned they have expanded storage, coolers, and anti pirate weapons with at least one ballista.

For the wall around the community, it is going well but even with magic it will take month to transport the dirt for the wall, but the skeleton of it has been completed. We then worked on building, water towers for irrigation, barns for animals, and warehouses with enchantments to preserve food. I did buy a small herd of dairy cattle.

For Wards I placed a giant ward stone to give a map of the surrounding 150 mile of land. The map reveals mineral deposits, large groups of people, and people with magic.

With the gold from quest I bought additional knowledge in wards, we bought food for keeping us feed till crops come in, more people for training, more equipment, and ward stones for the houses. With additional craftsmen for teaching the villagers more and a master healers for the village.

During these days Lord Glover spent time just looking around the lands and asking questions about magic. He was looking forward when we began to export fire whiskey.

"Lord Glover I wish you well and I am not sending you off empty handed, I have here a case of 4 bottle of fire whiskey and a crate of honey mead. And I want you easy travel."

"I wish you well, Halvard you have given me much to think about in the coming days and most likely a very surprised and annoyed father at my home."

It will take him 5 days to return to his Deep wood motte. But enough about him we have work to be down and money to be made.
