Viking: Battle for Asgard/Isaholm

After the narrative, the game will fly the camera around some of the islands hotspots, showing you your first objective: retake the quarry.

As with the other islands, you'll begin by standing in the middle of a portal. Run down the hill and speak with Champion Osten on the right side of the path - he'll give you three additional objectives: clear legion forces from the farm, the watch tower, and the still.

Head down into the camp, and purchase the treasure maps from the shopkeeper, as well as any additional equipment (a health upgrade perhaps?). If you've acquired enough additional gold from the past two levels, talk to the blacksmith and upgrade as many runes as you can, since you can achieve the maximum level.

You can get three achievements by maxing out all of the runes, and then unleashing the power in battle and using their special ability ( or ).

The Quarry
From town, run north until you reach where the paths split. Take the upper pathway on the right side that curves above and to the left. You'll notice a large fenced in area - your allied vikings are held here, but the key to the gate is held by a champion on the northeastern upper side. Head over that way (past the leystone) and slay the beast.

Head back to the gate and open the door with the key you acquired. Kill the remaining legion forces in the area, then free your brothers. Reinforcements will appear, and after taking care of them you can speak with one of the leaders (he is located near where the vikings were imprisoned, within the enclosed area). He will inform you that the legion fed them food that made them sick and weakened, and that Beekeeper Im's honey has the potential to cure them.

You'll receive a new objective on Brisingamen, so from the quarry head west until you reach a large pond area, fed by a waterfall, and a house constructed on a solitary rock in the middle. Head north and run up the wooden ramp, speak with Beekeeper Im to receive the cure, then jump off on the west side of the ramp and grab the gold bag. There's also one in the corner hidden by the waterfall.

Return the quarry and speak with the guard. His men will feel better and join your ranks. Speak with the quarry master to receive explosives used later on.

If you haven't done so already, scour the quarry for all remaining sources of gold.
