“I trust that’s the green little one you’ve been looking for. If I were you I’d step in before that Hyldnir splits him in half. You’ve arrived in the middle of the Hyldsmeet, so all challenges must be accepted by participants.
There’s nothing to stop you from taking your green friend’s place.”

Lore Context
This is the quest you’ve been working toward since Gretchen Fizzlespark sent you to find her brother Zeev back at K3. The Hyldnir captured the male goblins as slave labor, and Zeev ended up here in Brunnhildar Village as a “warmup” opponent for Hyldnir warriors preparing for the Hyldsmeet.
By defeating Agnetta in what amounts to a formal challenge, you’ve inadvertently entered yourself into the Hyldsmeet, the sacred vrykul competition of strength. All challenges during the Hyldsmeet must be accepted by participants, and Lok’lira exploits this technicality.
She tells you: “You’ve arrived in the middle of the Hyldsmeet, so all challenges must be accepted by participants. There’s nothing to stop you from taking your green friend’s place.”
On the surface, Lok’lira’s deal is now fulfilled. She helped you find Zeev; you freed her from Mildred’s shackles. But rather than part ways, Lok’lira proposes you keep competing in the Hyldsmeet to reach Thorim at the Temple of Storms.

Vikstone's War Journal“I trust that’s the green little one you’ve been looking for.” Lok’lira’s gaze directed me toward a clearing where a frost vrykul loomed over a cowering goblin. “If I were you I’d step in before that Hyldnir splits him in half.”

Zeev Fizzlespark. Gretchen’s brother. Looking about three seconds from becoming a stain on the snow.
“You’ve arrived in the middle of the Hyldsmeet, so all challenges must be accepted by participants.” Lok’lira’s smile held something like anticipation. “There’s nothing to stop you from taking your green friend’s place.”
Agnetta Tyrsdottar raised her weapon, addressing Zeev with contempt. “This puny green pup was of no use at the mines. No matter, he’ll make for suitable warmup for battle.”
My voice cut across the clearing before I’d fully decided to speak. “Skip the warmup, sister… or are you too scared to face someone your own size?”
She turned. Her eyes found mine, and whatever she saw there made her smile.
“I’m not afraid of anything. Bring it on!”
She moved first. Her overhead strike crashed against my shield with force that buckled my knees. The rim groaned. I answered with a shield bash that stole her breath, then pressed forward before she could recover.
The fight found its rhythm. Her sweeping blow at my legs met the edge of my shield, and I hooked her weapon aside, drove my mace into the opening. She wobbled, rage and pain mixing in her eyes, then came again with a strike meant to split my skull.
I caught it overhead. Our eyes locked. One of us walks away.
I twisted, deflected her blade sideways, and surged up with my mace. Her ribs cracked beneath the blow. She fell.
Zeev’s terrified squeaking turned to babbled gratitude. Behind me, Lok’lira nodded.
“Well done, young one. It looks like our deal has been satisfied on both our ends.”
Zeev was safe. But I had a feeling Lok’lira’s plans extended well beyond one rescued goblin.
