No wandering bard for the Nords?

[gb2011]

I've decided to try and marry Lady Miar of the Nords because she's the most attractive woman in the game 

But I'm puzzled to find that I can't get any information about her as none of the Nord towns have a bard. This seems very odd. I suppose I can just gatecrash the feasts but it would be useful to know if she's a power hungry Lady Macbeth or a sweet and noble family girl. I would have thought there would be one bard somewhere. Any advice? Thanks.

The wanderers appear randomly in tavern. Check back in a few days. Also remember to check up stairs.

Edit: I usually talk to the wanderers about all ladies early in the game so I have all the info when I need.

Just like the ransom broker. My worst streak in not finding a ransom broker was 9 towns across 3 kingdoms all lacking ransom brokers. I finally found one on the 10th.

Nord bards are called "Skalds". My apologies if you already know this, I didn't until i started playing harnmaster.

God yeah, I only recently realised there was an upstairs when I got attacked by a drunk and suddenly found all these people coming down in a panic

That's why I'm so glad I found the TweakMB mod (I also got sick of hunting around all the towns for the Guild Master)

The wiki lied to me!   http://mountandblade.wikia.com/wiki/Wandering_poet 

Thanks for the advice. It feels like I've already been waiting for ages which is why their continuing abscence was so strange. Just have to keep waiting and trying I guess
