'As you have no doubt heard from Thane Edric, Orcs have crossed the Wade into our lands from the Sutcrofts. We know not what has driven them here, but they cannot remain for their numbers will bolster the already sizeable forces of the White Hand.

'They bear queerly adorned armour, but beneath it, they appear frailer than most we have seen thus far. It is my thought that Reeve Fastred and his men drove them off, though I would imagine Edric would take him to task for not slaying all of their number.

'We cannot abide them near our border. Ride south of Entwade along the edge of the river, and slay them. For how gaunt they appear, it may well be a mercy.'

Thane Edric can be found in the Mead Hall of Entwade in eastern Kingstead.

You have defeated the remainder of Orc forces that fled into the Westemnet. You should inform Thane Edric of your success.
