Background
In Sognfjord, within in walking distance of the enclosure of the great hall of Ragnar Rogersen is a small group of buildings where various items of loot from his overseas raids are kept. A small group of men guard the buildings and their contents.
Sven Eriksen has heard that the Scroll of Somblocus, which apparently contains information about the route to the location of the treasure of the Whorled Cup, is stored there. He has sent a some of his best warriors to steal the scroll.

The Game
Sven's warriors approach the store houses....
They make final preparations for the their raid, they split into two groups one to get into the store houses, the other to wait nearby in case of trouble.
An archer and a warrior get into position to cover the main entrance ...
Meanwhile the store house guard are on patrol ....
The warriors cross the ground carefully from the trees.... the sentry hears a noise and peers into the darkness but sees nothing ....
A noise, perhaps made by the other group of Sven's warriors is heard by the sentries who move along the wicker fence line to investigate....
The lead warrior crosses the wicker fence and takes out one of the sentries, the other turns.....
The rest of the warriors quickly get over the fence, the other sentry is dispatched..... a lucky shot from the archer covering the main gate takes out the sentry there as well...
The warriors move in, their activities have been heard by a sentry on the far side of the enclosure...
As he comes over to investigate, he blunders into one of the warriors and is quickly dealt with ...
With the sentries out of the way, they start searching the store houses for the scroll ....
A short search in the first hut they try locates the scroll, they then move carefully across the open ground... they pause for a moment - the door of the second store house opens and a man peers outside - seeing nothing in the dark he then goes back in closing the door
The party of warriors make their way quietly out of the enclosure to safety ....
