Psu-Varlds Trad is a colossal kapok tree that the Scorpkin consider their holiest of sites. Its sacking was supposed to symbolize the death of the Scorpkin spirit, and General Haskell personally let a detachment of his Thanehold into glorious battle. They did not return. Wolfhead scouts were sent into the jungle to discover what happened. They did not return. Soon, once compliant villages rose up again and station squads failed to report in. That was 2 weeks ago. Since then the Wolfhead Thanehold has been withdrawn from the region, and the Thunderhawk Thanehold under General Lokin Fal-Truitt has been chosen to pick up.
However, Supreme Storm General Asmund wants answers to the sudden change in the tides of war before he commits the forces of General Lokin, who bawks at Asmund's caution, yet yields regardless. The new Wolfhead Thanehold General is Viggo Sigrid, a hardass who was chosen to lead personally by General Haskell before his death.
Viggo Sigrid was your instructor and commanding officer when he was a Commander, and he HATES your guts. He thinks your mere presence in the Thanehold weakens it, the Stormcloaks, and the dignity of The All Father. Viggo was second to Eldin Bulin in their graduating class and is highly qualified and respected. This respect has given him leeway to organize his scouting operations however he wishes, and he has taken this opportunity to cull the weakness of his Thanehold; you.
At 6 a.m., Viggo Sigrid called you and other members of your Thanehold to a meeting to organize them into scouting squads. Three days after that, you will be deployed, which gives you three days to say goodbye to your comrades and prepare for your death—or maybe gain an edge to ensure your survival.
