DISCLAIMER: Your Steps and Tasks may be different

*All classes can do this quest, but not all can wear the reward. The reward is a chain mail item.

Talk to Gudlor in Huginfell, who states that they have heard word that the town will be attacked by the Blodfelags. You are asked to protect Hugginfell by killing the leader of a band of blodfelag. His name is Thegn Aki.

Gudlor says, "Hail, the town needs your help. I have received word from our spies that the Blodfelag are planning to attack. We must stop them before they do. Do you think you have the strength of character to help us?"

You have been given the Protect Huginfell quest.

Gudlor says, "Ahh, good! Perhaps this may not be our darkest day afterall. The Blodfelag have a camp down the road past the Svartalf village where they plan to attack from. You must go to that camp and find their Captain, a man called [Thegn Aki]. He is an infamous killer who wil show no mercy to you or any that aid you. I suggest you gather as many men as you can before you attack his camp."

Gudlor says, "It is said he wears a special helm, crafted for his sire, the great [General Aki]. I am sure it is magical however I am not quite sure its purpose."

Gudlor says, "General Aki was said to be a great leader among men. Unfortunately, he only allowed men in his ranks. He was a friend of [Konung], Botolf's father. General Aki was reumored to be able to use magic as well, only his dead enemies knew just how much though."

Gudlor says, "Go gather your forces and quit wasting time! There will be time to worry about Redhands later. May the gods have mercy on us if you fail."

[Step #2] Find the Blodfelag camp and slay Thegn Aki.

You will need a group or a good mate to help if you are lower than 17 or so. Aki is orange to 16.

You have finished the Protect Huginfell quest.
You receive a Helm of the Aki from Thegn Aki.
Your standing with the Blodfelag has decreased.
You get XXXXX experience points.

Reward:
  Helm of the Aki

Anyone can do this quest, but not all can wear the helm, and that really sucks.
Crap.

Dont even try this quest solo at 16. He has some
wicked insta DDs. I can single pull em, but his DDs tear my 16 worrior up. Besides, for the troubble at this lvl. The reward is not worth it.

This quest can be completed by the Savage quest but the reward item is still chain mail!
Tough one

Just did this one with another lvl 19. He's a Skald. He died the first time trying to pull from the back. We aggroed two windcallers and Aki. They chased me all the way back into town. We tried again from the front of the building. I shot a Fungal Burr in the front door. We only pulled Aki and one svard. We both got the helm/coif.

You didn't get the quest at lv 15 because it's a lv 16 quest. DUH!!!
Nice helm

i got this at lvl 16 with my warrior, took a whole group to do this the melee way cause of the casters and guards following him

but for a warr/thane this was a superb reward

while we were there, a lvl 25 healer did this quest, so the lvl-range of this quest is rather high, and healers can wear chain at lvl 20, so.. u know :p

this camp was also a pretty nice grouping place, we took out the whole village several times and had a great time :)

Thegn Aki is at the camp, down the road from Svartlaf Chanter camp. He is in the back of the narrower cabin type house, and is usually with 2 - 3 casters and a few melees. It takes a good group of people to do this quest, but the reward for a Thane or Warrior is very nice.
LVL 17

I just got this quest and I'm a lvl 16 warrior, so its possible to get it pretty early on. That and the Lover's circle or ring thing I got as well.
location

As far as location, just follow the road west from huginfell, past the svartalf camp on the left, past the camp on the hill to the right, and up to the blodfelag camp with two buildings and a watchtower. Aki is in the thinner of the two buildings, which is also the one closer to huginfell.
Skalds

A battle tactic for skalds on this quest. I have been doing really well kiting solo mobs with my skald, and did this quest at 17 with a minimum of difficulty. Here's how. There is a wagon just outside Aki's house with a guard. Kill him, and then for your next pull, grab the guy who stands at the NE corner of the house. Frequently this will pull Aki as well. Use your submission song, turn and run in the direction of huginfell. Aki will follow you at full speed while the other guy will be moving much slower. Eventually he will be out of agro range and you can solo Aki. Since he was yellow and sometimes orange to me, I did this: Use both of the Direct Damage songs on him and then snare him. Turn and run. Get far enough so he is still chasing you, and rest while waiting for him to get in range of your DD songs again. Two or three repeats of this and his hits should be low enough that you can stand toe to toe, and you have yet to take a single hit if you do it right. This works for any solo mob, but was especially helpful because Aki is surrounded by guards and would be impossible to solo for a skald otherwise.
Loc?

Anyone have a location? i can't seem to find it... i see several camps and outposts, but none of them have the quest enemy.
helm

you can get this quest earlier than 20 but the hekm cannot be worn until then.

I did it at 17. Aki is in the house at the camp and if you go to the back of the house he will run through the wall at you with friends. I was only in a party with a healer but it is easy enough. The monsters and helm are yellow at 17, this is NOT a lvl 20 quest.
Same here

I either got it at 15 or 16, I forget. It was sort of pointless for me because Aki was orange to me, and i grouped with a lvl 32 guy to do the quest, so no exp. Also, I can't wear chain, so helmet no good.
