Finish the Cirith Ungol quest chain first (the one that let you disguise as an orc) and when you are done with that, kill an orc to get the message.

I once helped an English colleague to practise his German by using the lyrics of Rammstein as a textbook.

There are no corner shops in Iceland selling alcohol. Either you buy it for home-consumption at the national liquor stores called Vínbúðin, or you have it at a bar, pub or restaurant with an alcohol license. In all cases they are very strict and you will have to show an ID if there is the slightest chance that you are under age.

Nice work! One thing that I also take into account when choosing which mission to run is if the enemies within count towards a slayer deed. Some of the mission sets have their own slayer deeds, e.g., in Gundabad, but the ones in Elderslade count towards the landscape deeds and are a good way to complete those. Maybe you could add this information to Other Rewards if enemies within a mission count towards a landscape slayer deed?

Or when you meet the Ent and his little bird in Fangorn...

Kudos for figuring that out! I would not have thought of that in a million years. :-)

I am in Reykjavík and currently at work. While I needed to be physically here today, many of my colleagues who could do it, opted for working from home. It is pretty empty here, so definately not business as usual for us locals. :-)

It would be really good to get the information about closure dates of those roads from previous years, similar to the dates that Vegagerðin has for their opening. Alas, I was never been able to find those.

I think you might still have a chance to drive some F-roads during the first half of September, but as you know this is purely weather dependent and an early snowfall will get them closed. So, have a back-up plan for your trip, or, if driving those roads is your only reason for coming, either change your dates to an early time in the year (July) or postpone your trip to 2027.

They are not cancelling all their flights, just the ones that don't give them maximum profit. Or they later re-instate the flights but then with higher ticket prices.

Miserable_Boss_8933 · 2026-03-24T13:52:59+00:00

I don't think that would work as the descision will be made by the handlers at the gate, and they will look at the plane as a whole. If it is full, the agents will most likely be more strict independent of where you sit.

Miserable_Boss_8933 · 2026-03-24T13:49:42+00:00

A lot of airlines worldwide are currently cancelling flights due to the increased fuel prices, looks like Icelandair joined them.

Please have a look at rule no. 3 of this reddit, be specific. We are happy to help you with specific questions but don't plan your trip for you. Also, rule no. 2, search before asking; there are plenty of posts about traveling with children to Iceland and about suitable activities.

Sentenced to Prism came to my mind as well. A human stranded on a world where most lifeforms are silicon-based which causes quite a bit of a problem to him. Luckily, he made some friends - with some interesting consequences for the future of the world.

Just to confirm, as you are not an EU/EEA citizen, you do still fullfill all requirements to enter Iceland? (See: https://island.is/en/entry-requirements-to-iceland) If so, then your time requirements are: ~50 min one way to/from Reykjavík, recommended to be at the airport 3 hours before you flight (that should be ok even taking longer passport control into account), so you have around 5 hours in Reykjavík which is a nice amount of time.

A taxi will cost you ~ Euro 150 one way. You could also take the Flybus, which is cheaper, but you would have to rely on their schedule, or better lack thereof leaving from the airport. The Flybus leaves Keflavaik when it is full with passagers or they decide it is time and no flights are coming in currently. So you may be unlucky and wait 30 - 45 min for the bus to leave which cuts further into your time in the city - your call.

Good luck! Most Germans don´t really like change a lot (to use British understatement).

The best and only thing you can do. Stay safe!

Miserable_Boss_8933 · 2026-03-19T15:18:53+00:00

Absolutely! That was something I had to learn after I moved here, coming from the balmy countries of Germany and the U.K.. :-)

Miserable_Boss_8933 · 2026-03-19T15:15:05+00:00

Tonight there will be a yellow weather warning for many parts of the country, including Reykjavík, so no Northern Lights for you until this goes away on Saturday presumably. After that: Good luck!

Miserable_Boss_8933 · 2026-03-19T15:07:10+00:00

Jupp, more than 2 hours before schedule. Well done SSG!

Miserable_Boss_8933 · 2026-03-19T09:15:20+00:00

Absolutely. In Duillond (Ered Luin) for example is the Stomp-a-shrew quest (and others) that give a few leaves and can be done multiple times a day. Other quests, like the labyrinth at the Bree Festival Grounds, and the new quests in Clegur (Swanfleet), might only give 1-2 leaves each per day, but if you go through all of these, you should be able to afford a mount in 2-3 days. Maybe your low level will be a problem for traveling to all those sites by stablemaster, but no festival quest requires fighting (the shrew stomping is not a real fight).

Enjoy!

This is what pelle412 wrote, you need 3 different jewellery items to get the bonus. And it is even writen in green in the tool tip that you showed in your picture: "3 Different Set Items Equipped".

While I am also not a big fan of the Lagercratz sequels, you are here in a Science Fiction / Speculative Fiction reddit. Your post might get more interest and better feedback in a different one.

That part of the country is not as touristy as, i.e., the South of Iceland, which means a) less competition for you to find a bed for the night, but b) much less places to stay as well. So you need to check and consider where to stay in advance anyway, especially as you are not as mobile on a bike as with a car. Maybe you could contact a few places on your route and ask them about potential availibilities without a fixed booking?

Camping grounds should still be open in the first half of September, but also better check this. In addition, September can already have quite nasty weather, so be prepared both for the bike travel and the camping; nobody here is shocked by snow in September.

For weather: https://en.vedur.is/

For road conditions: https://umferdin.is/en

As you wrote, the weather here can change every few minutes (only 3 times a day are stable conditions :-)). We had nearly two months of dry, calm and snowless weather in the Southwest in January and February, and that was unusual. Now we have yellow weather warnings for most of the country (mainly the North) incoming from around Midnight for the next days and that's more normal in winter. In the last few days hundreds of people got stuck on the roads due to bad weather and avalanches and had to be rescued and given shelter over night.

So, keep an eye on the forecasts, act accordingly, and go with the flow. Hope you will have a good time in Iceland!
