#The banner saga ekkill series

If Onef's dead by your hand (as he was in our game), he won't give chase. He can't hold on to power in Frostvellr without Onef. Regardless of how many/how few of the supplies you take, Ekkill will chase you. You prepare to leave the city of Frostvellr behind. It's pretty good, but wouldn't really be useful until Banner Saga 2.īefore too long, Onef has led you out of the city with his trusted fighters. If we're greedy and make multiple trips, you get an additional fight as Ekkill discovers you, but you get more supplies and also get a +2 aggro +2 str resist item, the Shepersky Stone. : Just wanted to know whose face I'm going to break if things go wrong. : If nothing else, Ekkill's going to feel it when his food suddenly vanishes. : If we're lucky I'll get a chance to put a dagger in Ekkill. Get the supplies and there are plenty of fighters who are desperate to get out of here. I want out of here as much as you do, just never had anywhere to go. : I know where Ekkill keeps his supplies. : Because it's a death sentence? Food's already running low. And the dredge probably won't follow us out over the wastes. I might know someone there who can help us. Wyrmtoe's the only thing that makes sense, across the wastes. : By now the dredge have already flooded the south, I'm sure. Soon as those gates were shut, Ekkill walked into the great hall and sliced open the chieftain like a narwhal. : That what he told you? He never put Ekkill in charge. : Why would Frostvellr's chieftain put a madman in charge of his guards? You spot ALette looking at one of the thugs. : If we're not murdered in our sleep, it's only a matter of time before the dredge find their way in. Anyway, there's a fight where you beat the hell out of some raiders, and then. There's really no explanation (at the time) given for why Ekkill suddenly attacks. This is what you get.Įkkill walks away, leaving you to deal with his thugs. : Remember what I said? Think carefully about what you want. He stands, axe pointed in your direction, on the other side of a dozen men. In our saga, Rook was camped outside the walls fighting endless waves of dredge (largely so I could get the +1 will/+1 arm per turn item).

We then do all of Hakon's march before things head back to Rook's POV. With the gates closed, Ekkill and his men disappear down dark alleys. Hope we don't meet again fighting for the same scraps.

He snorts through his nose, changing his mind. You can feel Ekkill sizing you up on the spot, his hand hovering near his axe. Kind of a dick move on Rook's part, and one made with player knowledge of what was to come.

It's great, and also what got me into the series in the first place.Īnyway, in our journey we barged into the city of Frostvellr, talked to Ekkill, and barged our way out. If ever you wanted to see a somewhat different telling of the events of Banner Saga 1 (in part because the events themselves are different from our canonical journey), I'd recommend checking it out here. I'm borrowing liberally from ProfessorProf's LP of The Banner Saga 1 here so that I don't have to replay it myself. Part 50: Coda 5: Ekkill and Onef Coda 5: Ekkill and Onef
