Thjorgard City


 
Thjorgard City Map
This city is like the hub of society. Here you can find teachers (GM) in every combat skill and about every secondary skill (E/M). Every type of shop is present here also including some "secret" shops on the second floor of the Tavern.

To gain access to these "secret" shops just speak to the Bartender. The shops include weapons, armor, and a trainer. (He trains to level 25.) They pay better and charge less than other shops in this area. And the nice thing is that they are always open 24/7.

Of course you want to speak to the Jarl and find out just what it is you have to do for him in order to have him join the Coalition. He is upstairs at the Palace and the Town Portal Stone is situated right in front of him.



Paladin Promotion

Part of your promotion quest is located right here with the Jarl. Show Sven the letter Grehgknak has entrusted to you. He hatches a plot for you to be combatants in the Arena the following day. He appears to be dubious of your abilities and plans to send a look alike to the Arena in his stead. He does not want the Assassin harmed in order to find out who is behind this plot to have him killed.


You can wait until the next day or go immediately. I preferred to wait for the following day just to see the quest played out with all its fanfare. Simply go to the Arena (A) when you are ready and sign in at the window as combatants. Enter the Arena itself and momentarily a man emerges from one of the side doors. Just approach him and speak to him. Play out the dialogue options and just let the dude go his way.


He gives you the name Harris Willington and a vague clue. He was hired because this man was not happy with Sven's proposed tax on import goods. This should clue you into the fact it must be some one involved in retail business. Go to the General Store and speak to the man on the left behind the counter. He's your man. You tell him he's under arrest and that's about it. Return to Sven for a little bonus and this part of the promotion quest has reached its conclusion. (See Sturmford City Walkthru for details on the other half of the Quest.)


One quirk of the game, Harris is always here even after this event takes place. I guess good Accountants are hard to come by.


Gladiator Promotion

This part of the three part quest a Gladiator receives is pretty straightforward. Just go to the Arena and enter yourselves as combatants at Lord level. Defeat your opponents and that's that.


The Mines

A small part if the Jarl's quest to discover why the Mines are not producing is played out here in the city. After venturing into the mines and discovering a broken machine come and speak to Hjarrand Fixer (5). Offer him 1,000 gold and he agrees to meet you at the mine and look at the broken machine.
 

Elemental Thjorad

Once you have completed the mines you will have quite a bit of ELemental Thjorad to sell. You may want to pop over to the Armorer. He pays very well for it. You must offer to sell it to him piece by piece which can get tedious.


Kill a Dragon

For the second leg of this quest you need to speak to Snorri the Fist in the Tavern. Offer to buy him a drink and he tells you to prove yourselves as warriors before he will give you any further details. To prove your worth you need to get into the Training Hall here in Thjorgard and return to him.


Upon successfully getting through the Training Hall you will return here and he "can see by your face" you have been there. Probably saw that dirty look I gave him for sending us into the midst of all those Lizard Orcs!  He then tells you of Abbot Leffery Caid in the Lindisfarne Monastery. So begins the third step in the Quest to kill a Dragon.
