Trading with foreign merchants overseas through Dublin's import and export business is not what one would first expect as a major feature of an Assassin's Creed Valhalla DLC, however, Wrath of the Druids has loads of it. This is not a bad thing, as collecting special currencies and acquiring new Trading Posts can be a fun side activity to go along with all the raiding and questing that changes up the pace once in a while.

One of the earlier Trade Quests, known as "Dyed in the Wool", allows players to obtain and set up another Trading Post that supplies Cloth; one of the most-needed Ireland-only resources for Overseas Trading. It's fairly similar to the previous Trade Quest that one must have completed to unlock this one (Rathdown Build Up); it is meant to be another quick and easy way to get some Cloth.

Starting The Quest

After completing enough Main Quests in Wrath of the Druids to get to Chapter 2, one will gain access to Azar's Trading Post in Dublin. This is where all Trade Quests can be found, including Dyed in the Wool, so hop over to their usual spot and speak to the one-eyed merchant to get details on how to proceed.

Finding The Unclaimed Trading Post

Azar will tell Eivor to head to the northwestern border of the Meath region to find an unclaimed Trade Post that is guarded by a few foes.

The swiftest way here is to fast-travel to the Tullagh Laght Viewpoint and then head west, across the Boyne River. On the way, one will come close to the Trial of Morrigan in upper Meath, which will appear as a blue Mystery dot on the map when one approaches the location or if the player has scanned the surroundings with Synin's help. Either way, it won't take too long to reach Drumlish via this route.

Scouting Out Drumlish

As one closes in on the destination, be sure to get a bird's eye view of the place, as the enemies here may not be what one expects. Instead of humans brandishing weapons, a vicious pack of wolves has made this abandoned structure their den. Thankfully, this pack consists of only regular wolves and none of the beasts that are are secretly werewolves.

Clearing Out The Wolves

For this extermination, feel free to use one's preferred method of taking down canine foes. Ranged attacks from bows can be a great way to open up the assault from afar. Wolves are pretty fast, however, so Eivor will likely only be able to take down two or three beasts like this before the furry foes close the gap and begin their counterattack.

Clearing The Wolves From Outside The Drumlish Trade Post

Thankfully, there are only about five or six wolves (depending on how many spot the player from inside Drumlish) that attack while the player is outside the stone ring of Drumlish's Trade Post walls. Dealing with about half their force before they get into attacking range leaves only about the same number to take on in melee combat. Two-handed weapons are ideal to sort out wolves in only a few blows each, however, they aren't very tough and any combat method can do the trick.

Clearing The Wolves From Inside Inside The Drumlish Trade Post

After dealing with the wolves outside, head into the inner part of Drumlish to take out the rest. There are about three or four more wolves in here (depending on how many ran outside to attack the player) so utilize the same preferred method of dispatching the furred fiends. When all enemies are slain, one can then establish the Trade Post via an upgrade sign like the ones in Ravensthorpe.

Setting Up The Trading Post

Using the Trade Deed one acquired from Azar, Eivor can interact with the sign in front of the only structure within the stone walls and claim the establishment. Not only will this refurbish the entire location and complete the quest, but it will also get rid of all the wolf carcasses!

More importantly, this will cause Drumlish to become fully operational and start giving 1 Cloth per minute, which can be collected from the chest at Azar's Trading Post in Dublin. If one wants to double this amount to 2 Cloth per minute (this will end up being way more than it sounds) be sure to set up all of the sub-structures as well, though those will cost Trading Post Supplies, a resource found by executing Raids in Ireland as well as gained from Royal Demands.

Cost Of Drumlish Trade Post Upgrades

As with all the Trade Posts one can claim, players can build Storehouses (100 Trading Post Supplies), Supply Depots (70 Trading Post Supplies), and Workman's Cottages (200 Trading Post Supplies). Be sure to complete this quest early on in one's adventures in Ireland for greater amounts of unique currency.
