Civilization! Towns have shops, trainers, perhaps even people with jobs so your party can earn some money gain the necessary experience. And it has a Jarl. You need to speak to all the Jarls of Chedian in order to unite the clans. Meanwhile, engage in conversation with the citizens, they can provide you with a lot of information. Later you might want to explore the area outdoors.

Januari 11, 10:38 Sturmford City

It is always a good idea to check the tavern, and don't be afraid to enter the houses. Most people here are friendly.

Bjarni Herjolfssen (tavern)
"Perhaps we can buy you a drink?"
"I believe Drangheim agents have penetrated our defenses and are planning an attack."
"We will sniff out the spies for you."

Ludwig Van (house)
"What happened to your manuscript?"
"It fell down the drain in my Beet Hoven."
"We'll get your manuscript for you."

That's two quests already! There is an entrance to the Beet Hoven in Ludwig's house, but it sounds a bit dangerous to go in there right now, and it's urgent to find the Jarl.

Clover (Ivanhoe)

Pick up all the clovers you can find. They give one skillpoint to the character that eats it (double-click on the clover in the character's inventory).

Randver the Storm (scribe's office)
"We'd like to ask you a few questions.
What do you know about Bjarni Thorvaldsen?"
"He's a pig! I don't know how a monkey like him could himself a Jarl."
"You would dare call your Jarl a pig?"
"He's not my Jarl."
"What do you mean?"
"Er, uh, nothing"
"Why do I think that you are lying to us? What do you know about sabotage?"
"I'm not the one who unlocked the town gates ... Uh-oh." 200 xp

You have exposed a spy! He quickly disappears, but the job is done. Return to the tavern to collect your award, then resume exploring the town.

Bjarni Herjolfssen (tavern)
"We've discovered who the saboteur is."
"I'll make certain he pays for this!" $500 / 500 xp

Clover (Robin)

Town Hall
Cleansed Town Portal Altar

It is necessary to cleanse the altars, or the Town Portal spell will not work. Each Jarl has one in the province, but some of the altars are not so easy to find.

Bjarni Thorvaldssen (Town Hall)
"Is there anything we can do for you?"
"I have composed a letter that will sweep Kira, the Jarla of Tronheim, from her feet and make her mine."
"We need help to defeat Tamur Leng."
"I shall give you aid. But in order to do so, I need you to do two things.
Clear the Imps out of Anskram Keep.
Break Ivsar Forktooth out of Drangheim Prison."

Since there is no ship leaving today, and the Keep seems pretty dangerous, it seems a good idea to start looking for Ludwig's manuscript now. To prepare, visit the training grounds. Your characters should be able to train up to level 3, gaining 10 skill points, and if you have any fighters in the team they could perhaps become Expert at bow, armor or the weapon of their choice. Training also heals characters completely. Therefore, we went out the west gate to practice on the dragonfly population first.
