- Winsig says, "The Orcs have spilled forth from the East Wall, and seek to raze Walstow... we must move with haste!"
- Winsig says, "I know not how, but their strength seems beyond renewed..."
- Winsig says, "The Orcs come at us again...let us aid my brethren!"

- Winsig must not be defeated
The second stable lies to the south of the Mead Hall of Walstow.

- Winsig says, "Ah! Good fortune at last, the stable still stands untouched. Let us move to defend it!"

- As you approach the stable, a group of Orcs ambushes you

The second stable lies to the south of the Mead Hall of Walstow.
Winsig requires your aid in defending the stable from the vicious assault of the Orcs.
- Winsig says, "I fear you not, Orcs! Walstow will hold strong!"

Objective 6
- Cross the bridge with Winsig

While you defeated the Orcs at the second stable, the rest of the town has burst into flame. Winsig desires to reunite with her men and put out the fires.
- Winsig says, "Make haste! We must cross the bridge and reunite with my fellows!"
- As you cross the bridge, a large, vicious Orc blocks the way
Objective 7
Gadhumúrz stands just beyond the bridge of Walstow.

- Winsig says, "We have no time to lose! Save what we can! Grab the buckets, men!"

Objective 9
- Talk to Winsig
- Winsig must not be defeated
Winsig is standing outside the Mead Hall of Walstow.
The Orc force has been repelled, and Winsig and her people are free, at least for the moment, from the danger that consumed their home.
- Winsig: 'Time and time again, <name>, your aid has proven invaluable to me and my people.
- 'The Orcs cannot be allowed any more footholds in the Sutcrofts... to this day, I still mourn Hytbold. That is a matter for another time, though...
- 'In the wake of such destruction, I must tend to my people.'
- Winsig: 'Let us speak more of this attack in a moment. For now, I must ensure my people are safe.'
