It took all the next day to gather up and transport all the loot from the Nicors’ cave to our camp and start to value it. This was split on the basis of one ship one share as previously agreed with the King’s share reserved. Once the easily valued pieces and been sorted and converted […]

Hrothgar and the Nicors’ Lair It was now the tenth day since we had left Wasterwic. Hidegund looked particularly pleased when she delivered her morning report. No less than 15 more former slaves had regained their full wits. She hoped to see a faster recovery rate in the remaining victims of the seith brew as […]

Theign Osgar had the 70 or so fully active warriors split into 6 watches of around a dozen each. At any one time two watches would be active, two watches ready and two watches resting or sleeping. The Eowan oar slave was now recovered sufficiently to be questioned. His name was Aelfferth and unlike most […]

I come from a poor family in the crags of the East Geats. I left home in search of adventure and heard that Wiglaf, the Atheling, was searching for willing men to join him in an attack on the isle of Leastney. He had heard that the Malan islanders had gathered men in order to […]

I was at Gefndene enjoying the hospitality of Lytelman, now Thegn Osgar, during the last week of Winterfell. Looking in a magical device during the evening, Lytelman noticed something unusual to the south of Gethenhame. By dawn the anomaly was no longer visible, but Lytelman accompanied by the Atheling Wistan and myself, set out to […]
