Quest: The Siege: The Messenger
During this quest, Bjorn Ragnarsson asks you to meet with a West Saxe Lord and negotiate a treaty.
You travel to a unit known as 'West Saxe patrol'
When you speak, you get three dialog options;
1. "Lets us through, we wish to speak to (lord so-and-so), we come as emissaries."
2. (Attack the Patrol)
3. (Continue past the Patrol)
I have done all three.
1. Clicking this option brings you to the screen where your character says the line, but you cannot progress any further. You cannot 'press left mouse button to continue', you cannot go back, no buttons are responsive. I had to close down the game manually because I couldn't do anything. You are simply stuck in the dialog box.
2. You CAN attack and defeat the patrol, but it does not complete or update the quest, and I did not see a second patrol respawn. This effectively means you cannot progress through the story anymore if you select this option. This is also the only option that does not freeze the game and require a manual shut down.
3. You see the dialog box show up for your character to speak, but similar to #1, you cannot do anything after this. The game will not let you continue the conversation, and you can not go back. This again requires a manual shut down.
I have been enjoying the game so far, despite the bugs. Most of the bugs I managed to get past or didn't break the game, but this is a bug that literally ends the story line. I cannot continue the story past this bug and I haven't managed to find any evidence of anybody getting past this part of the story so far online. Please post if you have come across this bug, or if you managed to get past this part. Thank you.

Well for my problem, the fort is controlled by Mierce. The quest prompt directs me to it, sure, but the leader of Northumbria isn't there.
