Let’s see if the Baroness has made any progress with the serial numbers.

The Oil Drill Scandal

Dear Rita. I might actually rescue something of my poor grape harvest… I just got a very interesting message from my son Aaron at the Jorvik Council. Regarding to the Oil Drill Establishment, the serial numbers you found at Mr Kembell’s drills are listed as stolen goods!

I want you to ride to Mr Kembell and tell him that I, the Baroness of Silverglade, will kick his butt and destroy all his business worldwide if he immediately doesn’t stop drilling at the Everwind fields.

Objectives: Talk to Mr Kembell.

This is some serious business when butts are on the line…

Go see Mr Kembell out at the Everwind oil field.

WHAT!?! You are here again and you dare to threaten me?! You really make me very very angre, little girl… GRRRRRRRRR!

Temporary Drill-Break

Ok, you evil little child… You win again but just for now. I know there must be a mistake with the serials but I can’t let the baroness destroy my reputation. Tell her I will stop drilling for now until I have sorted things out.

You really are a pain… My reputation may be ruined by the immature acts of a stupid child. No one should fool me, but you did it twice!

Objectives: Talk to the Baroness.

Reputation: 50 with Silverglade Manor

And the prize for Jorvik’s biggest drama queen goes to….

Ahhh Mr Kembell. Always has enough melodrama to count for the rest of us.

Return to the Manor and tell the Baroness the good news.

He was mad? Haha, I can imagine that. I wish I could have seen his face. I can hear the drilling has stopped. Well done girl, you have saved me a lot of trouble and maybe saved me a lot of money.

Quest completed

With that business completed, let’s go see what Alex has to say about what we’ve found in the old book.

Looking for Clues

Look, before we go to Firgrove to do any more research on this John Sandman, we should try to find out where Linda has gone. Maybe we can find some clues if we search the area.

Objectives: Search the environment for clues on Linda’s whereabouts.

Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 55 XP

Reputation: 45 with Keepers of Aideen

There are three clues to find, all located behind the stable; Linda’s glasses, cellphone, and a page from her book.

This is so strange… Exactly; if Linda would have left willingly she hardly would have left her glasses and mobile phone behind. And what do you have there…? A book page? Oh, look – it’s from Peter Pan… Wait – that’s Linda’s favorite book!

The Lead in the Phone

I got the phone turned on. Let’s check the text messages… Ok, the latest one says: “Meet me behind the stable tonight at 7 pm and I will tell you the truth. Come alone.” Wasn’t it behind the stable you found Linda’s belongings?

There’s no name of the sender, but we could try calling this number and see who picks up. Will you do it? The phone is on the table next to you.

Objectives: Call the telephone number to see who it belongs to. The hone is on the table next to Alex.

The phone is on the picnic table next to the sample comparing machine.

“Yes, this is Godfrey the butler speaking. Who am I talking to? Hello…? Hello?”

Blaming the Butler

Was that Godfrey?! Well, he obviously has something to do with this. Freaky… We should go talk to him; maybe this is a misunderstanding. I sure hope it is.

Objectives: Find Godfrey the butler and ask him about the text message.

Reputation: 45 with Keepers of Aideen

Hurry to the butler!

Miss. What is it? I’m in a big hurry, if you’ll please excuse me. I need to… What? You called me from Linda’s phone? Must be a misunderstanding… Huh. I really can’t stay and chat, you see. I most certainly can’t. Goodbye, miss.

Page Trail

He left without answering your questions. This is getting stranger and stranger.

You think the items and the book page Linda dropped can be the first part of a trial? Hey, that may be it! You’re clever, Rita! Maybe the trail will lead us to Linda? You should follow it.

Objectives: Follow the trail of book pages.

Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 45 XP

Reputation: 45 with Keepers of Aideen

The trail starts behind the stable where you found the first book page.

When you’ve reached the end of the trail, return to Alex.

I see, the trail ends at the castle. Is that where she is, then? In the castle? It makes no sense at all, if you ask me. What? Yeah, that’s right – there have been rumors about a girl crying in the tower. But could that actually be… you know… her?

Quest completed

______________

Cry to Me

You know what, I need to run some errands, but here’s a really good recording machine. Why don’t you ride to the castle and wait until the crying starts – if it does, I mean – and try to get it on tape? Then we can listen to it together and decide whose voice it is.

Objectives: Use the recording machine to record any sounds from the tower.

Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 65 XP

Reputation: 45 with Keepers of Aideen

Ride up to the castle gate to use the recorder.

Did you hear anything? Got it on tape? Ok, let me just listen to this.

______________

It’s Linda

That’s Linda’s voice. Yes, I’m sure of it. Godfrey must be keeping her locked in there for some reason. You need to confront the Baroness with this; she has to let us in the castle! The baroness is outside the vineyard, please ride there and talk to her.

Objectives: Go to the castle and confront the baroness.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 125 XP

Reputation: 45 with Keepers of Aideen

The Baroness is actually still at the vineyard like Alex says. Go speak with her immediately!

Excuse me? I’m not letting anybody in. You don’t know what you are talking about, little girl. What happens in this castle is none of your business. You should learn to keep your little worries to yourself, or else something unfortunate may happen to you, too.

Quest completed

Return to Alex tomorrow.

Looks like the Baroness isn’t going to budge. In the meantime let’s go make some new friends in Valedale.

The Valedale Stable

New in Valedale, huh? This place is not exactly a metropolis,  but at least we’ve got a stable. It’s over there; you should go take a look. Nice to meet you, by the way!

Objectives: Go to the Valedale stable and have a look.

Go talk to the stable girl Claire.

Hi, there! Claire’s the name. You feel like working? In that case you’ve come to the right place, girlfriend! Look at the notice board to see what I need help with. I hope you’ll enjoy yourself while in Valedale. This village may be small… but it has a big personality!

Show Me the Track

If there’s a riding track here? Sure there is! We have an excellent cross-country trail here in Valedale. It’s in the eastern valley and looked after by Mr Andersson, the gamekeeper.

Objectives: Talk to Mr Andersson in the eastern valley about trying out the Valedale cross-country track.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 55 XP

To get to the track, cross the bridge east of the stable and take the Silversong trail south a little bit past the two houses on that side of the river. Immediately past the houses, there’s a trail on the left heading into the mountains. Follow the trail up to the track.

Well, hello there, little lady! Have you come to use the trail? I’m glad. Makes me feel like someone appreciates my work here, ha ha. Go ahead, go on! And ride carefully, miss. I don’t want to clean up your blood, eh! I’m joking, I’m joking. Have fun, miss.
