Hen House
Attack The Hen House And Find The Mother Hen
Objective Point A
Enter the Hen House and search for the Mother Hen. He won’t be hard to find; head straight through the arch and into the central room with a large body of blue-garbed soldiers.
Objective Point B
It turns out that the Mother Hen is the real Ser Godric, lieutenant of the King’s Hand, Jon Arryn. The queen has dubbed him an enemy of the Crown, so regardless of the man’s seeming nobility, you have no choice but to execute him to stay in the queen’s good graces.
Of course, he won’t go down without a fight. As the Mother Hen strategically retreats to the cellar, his men converge from all sides. This is your biggest battle yet, and it will take strong tactics to survive. Switch back and forth between Alester and Valarr to make maximum use of their abilities. Alester’s stun and immobilize effects can help slow down enemy attacks, as can Valarr’s Upheaval against one of the more heavily armored enemies. If you need to reset your positions, use Valarr’s Earthquaker ability and coordinate your attacks while the guards are stunned.
Chase The Mother Hen And Kill Him
Objective Point C
While Valarr sends his Bloodseekers to engage the Hen’s men upstairs, the two of you go after the Mother Hen and Harry; they have disappeared into the cellar. Follow the corridor to the west and ambush the pair of enemies guarding the cellar door. Slay the light-armored foe first, then concentrate your efforts on the enemy with heavy armor.
Objective Point D
Descend into the cellar. Watch out when you spot the first long corridor. Though it seems there is only one soldier guarding the corridor, there are many doors along the walls, and guards will pour out of them. Use a ranged attack if possible to lure the single enemy toward you; then, when enemies attack from their rooms, they will appear in front of you rather than surrounding you. When the dust settles and enemies have stopped twitching, continue on.
Objective Point E
Stop after you turn around the final corner. If you look ahead, you’ll see Hen’s men standing in the cellar’s last room. You can duck into a small storeroom on your left for some additional loot, and when you’re ready to take on the Mother Hen, enter the last room.
Objective Point F
With five enemies against the two of you, the battle would already prove difficult; it’s almost impossible when you throw in the Mother Hen’s wildfire attacks...unless you know how to deal with them.
Left unchecked, the Hen will destroy you with wildfire: Each wildfire attack deals massive damage and may kill you in a single dose. The key to the battle is relying on Valarr.
Valarr and Alester should coordinate attacks on the normal foes and slowly kill them off one by one. Let Alester concentrate on the normal foes. Valarr can aid with an occasional big attack here and there, but he really has to conserve energy for the Mother Hen.
When it comes to the Mother Hen, Valarr must be vigilant and watch his every move. As soon as you see Mother Hen begin to cast Wildfire (he pulls his head back and drinks a potion to activate Wildfire), immediately interrupt him. You can use Valarr’s Upheaval if you’re standing next to him, or use Earthquaker if Mother Hen is nearby but others are in the way. You must prevent him from dousing Valarr or Alester with wildfire. Even better, you may catch him on fire with his own attack and make your job that much easier.
If you can avoid wildfire and work together well, Valarr and Alester will eventually take down Mother Hen and his men. Godric gives his final speech, and you see him for the honorable man he is even as Valarr finishes him off.
Execute Harry The Mother Hen’s Protégé
Objective Point G
With the Mother Hen’s death, Harry has nowhere else to hide. You can end the boy’s life quickly or let Valarr do it. Either way, the boy dies because the queen has decreed it. Before you leave to return upstairs, grab the Hen’s Keys from Godric’s corpse, as well as Avalanche, his sword, and a small flask that will be useful for holding potions in the future.
Search The Hen House For Information On The Mother Hen’s Activities
Objective Point H
The documents you’re searching for are upstairs. Walk past the corpses of the Hen’s slain men and follow the red-carpeted hallway to the end.
Objective Point I
Use the Hen’s Keys on the locked chest in the final room. You uncover the Hen’s Documents that the queen so desperately wants. From reading the letters, you discover that Godric sent a young woman (Jeyne Greystone) to Castle Black to escape Valarr’s grasp. He sends Yohn after Jeyne, asking him to infiltrate the Night’s Watch by posing as the dead Ser Godric.
