Thirsk is a mead hall created by Hrothmund the Red and some fellow Skaal over 500 years ago, located east of Lake Fjalding and south of Skaal Village, in the Felsaad Coast. The easiest way to reach it from Fort Frostmoth is to head east along the coast until you reach Iggnir River, then follow that to Lake Fjalding.

Thirsk can be a very welcome sight after the harsh conditions in the wilderness of Solstheim, opening its doors for you to rest and recuperate after a long adventure.

[edit] A Nordic Saloon

The first floor contains the Mead Hall itself with its patrons, among them is Erich the Unworthy, a perpetually angry barbarian. Later, you can become the chieftain here and run your very own business.

[edit] Upstairs Chambers

Go up the stairs in the northeast corner, and you enter a completely different area. The top floor is sub-divided into five bed chambers. A locked door on the northwest leads to Erich's bedchambers, holding an imprisoned missionary, Mirisa.

To the northeast, there is the room of Bereditte Jastal, a Breton scholar and author who sells several unique books, such as Thirsk, a History. You can rest (free of charge) in any of these rooms, depending on your preference, on a bed, or a bedroll made of bearskin. All in all, Thirsk is a welcoming place, and certainly lives up to the name "A light in the wilderness"

[edit] Services

Outside to the northeast is the smithy of Bjornrolfr. He sells Nordic silver weapons, minor armor, repairs your gear and has 600 gold. If you can bring him the required pelts, Bjornrolfr offers to craft Snow Bear and Snow Wolf armor unique to Solstheim, which has substantial bonuses against the cold.

[edit] Getting there

Travel to the Skaal Village is restricted mainly to walking, the surrounding terrain is difficult and Blizzards often drop visibility to a few feet. Divine Intervention from here takes you to Fort Frostmoth, Almsivi Intervention to Gnisis.

[edit] Notes

• Behind the main hall is a hollow stump containing several nice trinkets, among them the Ebony Arrows of Slaying.
• There is a small chance that a Confused Lunatic – a male level 55 Imperial Battlemage – spawns north of Thirsk. He turns into a Werewolf between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m.
• Likewise, the Wandering Lunatic – a male level 65 Orc Barbarian – is roaming outside the mead hall to the northeast. Between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m., he turns in to a Werewolf.
