Earl Thorfinn ë Baptism of a pagan

Half shares with a half-brother

Appeal to Brusi, your half-brother, to share his title. You have a strong naval fleet to offer. It is only fair!

intro and mission

A higher authority

Brusi is swiftly heading northwards to secure his title with King Olaf of Norway. The King has the final word on all affairs in Orkney. Go to Norway to appeal your own claim for the position of earl.

Wrong answer

King Malcolm has authority, but knows that Orkney is held by the King of Norway. You are deluded if you think he will stir up trouble just because you wish for more power! He would dismiss you without a second thought.

You have a strong claim to govern the Orkneys. What are you going to do about it?
