Background

Objective 1
Sabert is at the entrance of Stangard, ready to prepare for the Easterling attack.

Objective 2
- Listen to Sabert describe the preparations you will need to complete
Sabert is at the entrance of Stangard, ready to prepare for the Easterling attack.
- Sabert says, "The Men of Rohan are familiar with making preparations for war."
- Sabert says, "There are barrels of weapons atop the hill. We will carry them down here."
- Sabert says, "Then we will gather up fallen weapons wherever they may be."
- Sabert says, "Some of the men here have let their combat skills suffer. They could use some training."
- Sabert says, "We will need buckets of water brought to the watchtowers, in case the Easterlings wield fire."
- Sabert says, "We can carry those from up the hill."
- Sabert says, "Finally, we will need to clean up dirty dishes left from the noon-time meal."
Objective 3
- Talk to Bingo and learn what tasks he will handle
Bingo is just inside the entrance to the outpost of Stangard.
- Bingo Boffin: 'Finally, a task for which I am well-suited, <name>! I will take care of the dirty dishes, and you can handle some of the tasks that require heavy lifting!'
- Bingo Boffin says, "Dishes beware! I will clean you up in no time!"
Objective 4
- Talk to Langhár and learn what tasks she will handle

Objective 5

- Langhár says, "What was that noise? Did you hear that?"
Objective 6
- Investigate the commotion to the south-west
There has been a loud commotion to the south-west. Is the Easterling attack underway?
- Langhár says, "I hear the sound of fighting!"
- Sabert says, "What is that?"
- Landroval says, "<name>! This town is under attack!"
- Landroval says, "I have subdued these warriors, but more approach! Prepare yourself!"
Objective 7
- Talk to Sabert in Stangard
Sabert has been shunned into silence by the appearance of Landroval, but you need him ready for battle: the Easterlings have begun their attack on Stangard!
- Sabert: 'What a creature, <name>! I have never seen anything that might hope to compare! To think that such a majestic creature could come to the aid of my people... It defies expectation!
- 'And this woman, this Beorning. She too fights for Rohan? We will stand together, <name>, and cast back our foes! From this point forward, we stand as friends and allies!'
Objective 8
- Defend Sabert during the Easterling attack on Stangard
Sabert has been stunned into silence by the appearance of Landroval, but you need him ready for battle: the Easterlings have begun their attack on Stangard!
- Sabert says, "More Easterlings approach! Stand against them!"
- Langhár says, "I will search for foes elsewhere in the town!"
- Sabert says, "I never thought to see such strength from one like her!
- Sabert says, "Let us see if there are more Easterlings in Stangard, <name>!"
- Sabert says, "This way!"
- Landroval says, "I have circled this town from above, and saw no more foes nearby."
- Sabert says, "Then we are safe. We have repelled the attack!"
- Sabert says, "All of you have my thanks!"
- Bingo Boffin says, "You are most welcome, Sabert! All the dishes are perfectly clean!"
- Bingo Boffin says, "Oh! Hello, Landroval! When did you arrive?"
Objective 9
- Talk to Bingo in Stangard
Bingo has returned from his errands, and is ready to participate in the battle... which is now concluded!
- Sabert: 'That Beorning woman really is something, isn't she? Did you see the way she fought? Such strength and ferocity! I must admit that she put even my own skills to shame!'
- Bingo Boffin: 'What's that? The battle has already happened? I thought I heard something over the splashing of the suds, but I told myself it was simply my imagination!
- 'At least the dishes are clean. Still, it would have been exciting to see Landroval and Langhár in action! I do not mean to discount your own contribution, <name>... I know you are quite impressive in battle yourself!'
- Sabert: 'I cannot stop thinking about that Beorning woman! She cut a most impressive swath through the Easterling invaders, did she not? Such strength and ferocity!'
- Bingo Boffin: 'If the battle already happened, I suppose we accomplished what we set out to do, <name>!'
