Description

Our scout Skara writes in the missive that she learned of a major Legion initiative. She was after two encoded orders held by Legion troops near us to get the details and this must be when she was killed. The Legion splits their messages into encoded parts so that we cannot read them.

Skara also writes that her partner Brae, a codebreaker, was slain trying to reach our lines with a code book that we will need to translate the Legion's orders. It is vital you find the orders and that code book!

There are many references to "Skara Brae" in fantasy, another example is one of the towns in the Ultima series.

They are all ultimately inspired by the neolithic settlement of Skara Brae in the Orkney islands off the coast of Scotland. The ruins were uncovered in the mid-1800s and archaeological work continued through the 20th Century, influencing popular culture in a similar way to the boom in Egyptology that occurred after the uncovering of the Tomb of Tutankhamun in the 1920s.

Sometimes I think writers just like the way the words sound...

The orders are dropped by any of the mobs that are constantly attacking the flightpoint area as well. Just defend the encampment for a couple of minutes and you'll probably get both drops. On the other hand, you'll have to kill some mobs on the way to the body anyway so if you are not a stealthing class, you might has well just do it that way.
