Quest Group: Suthsexe / The Siege of Portcestre
This is the first of the quests in Suthsexe that you will be able to get when you use the alliance map after completing the quest line in Cent.
Make ready for the attack on Portcestre.
Go to Croindene and go inside the longhouse there. There you will meet Basim in the company of the local jarl - Guthrum. They will introduce you to the current situation in the region and then you will decide that the first step you should take is to get rid of the scouts sent by Fulke.
You must find three scouts. Approximate places where you should look for them will be marked on your map.
In the northernmost place you will find the first of the scouts, or actually what is left of him. He was slain by a pack of wolves which you will have to get rid of when you come there.
Note: Do not forget to confirm the kill of the scout!
He stays in the camp for quite a long time, where there are several other enemy soldiers, but from time to time he travels alone to the harbor located in the west and then back along the road on the north side of the river and then you can easily eliminate him. You will find Fulke's orders with him.
You will find the third scout in the northwest of Cicestre Abbey, where he stands in the company of a few other soldiers.
Try to kill him quickly because if you fail to do so, he will flee to the monastery grounds, where there are more soldiers.
Basim, Guthrum and others can be found in a camp located in the forest to the south. When you tell them what you have managed to figure out, your camp will be attacked by enemy soldiers.
Kill enemy soldiers until you fill the progress bar. When you kill the first wave, move down the hill to where the next opponents are.
Once the progress bar is full, Fulke's Champion will arrive on the battlefield. Broder and Brothir will attack him but it will end tragically for one of them. Then you will face the champion.
He dual wields swords. He can do a lot of damage, so try not to get hit. He has no unblockable attacks but can block yours.
When you defeat him you can decide what to do with him.
Pick up Brothir's body and carry him to your camp in the forest.
Then you will talk to your allies. No matter what you say, Guthrum will give you advice and then you will settle what to do next and this quest will end.
After completing this quest, you will be able to play the quest Arrive Unexpected.
