Our last option are the Blackrock Orcs, who you've undoubtedly met already. According to our reconnaissance, they started advancing into Northwind a few weeks ago, with no apparent motive or reason. It occurred very shortly after the Dark Irons made their move of aggression, so there may be a connection present. Sacking Birkhaven was just the beginning, I'm afraid. For now we will shift our focus on the orc unit that secured the watchtower to the north. They are far ahead of the mainforce, a different aim must be at play here. You know what to do at this point; I'll wait for your results here in Ambershire.
On return
If you wish to assist in driving out the main force from Northwind, a local marshal is conducting his own operation in the Plump Pumpkin. You can find it to the southeast at Grimmen Lake.
Turn-in
<Operative Hawthorne lets out a deep sigh hearing your findings. Looking clearly exhausted, he begins rubbing his eyes as a sign of defeat.> This whole ordeal proves to be more of a conundrum than I had hoped it would be. All three suspects act unrelated to our case, setting us back to zero. As much as it dismays me, I have to start my investigation anew. I will revoke your deputization; what you've done for me saved me valuable time, but I cannot demand any more of you. If I am fortunate enough, then the SI:7 will send someone to support me here. Until then, I must focus on my work. Farewell, Hero.
