Story So Far
For three hundred years the island of Manafell has been a fractured one. The central body of he island under the control of the Four Clans as One – the farming Beørnings, nomadic Augings, seafaring Ylvings and the Refskeggings, the traders and Kings who keep the laws, under the watchful eyes of the Mystics – once of a clan, now unfettered in the wake of the Gods’ will.
In the 22nd year of the reign of King Olaf Refskegging, something historic happened. Peace was brokered with the Manafolk’s ancient enemy, the Brúsingr, once the fifth clan of their people, led by the fifth hero who took the island and – according to the sagas – removed all of the Jotun and Trollkin from Manafell alongside Ylva, Refskegg, Auga and Beørn. A marriage between the King’s son Prince Thorstein and the pragmatic daughter of King Halfdan of the Brúsingr.
The Jomsvikings were next – five bands of warriors led by five Jarls, who swear oaths to no kings who cannot pay them. One, Gríma Knothair, was won over with piety, another two by quiet agreements with the Manafolk. Jarls Hilda and Johan had a problem: one of their fellow Jomsviking Jarls was a troublemaker, a nuisance, but anything they may do to aid the succession of his much more… amenable… captain would not be looked upon well by their people. The Manafolk were able to lend a hand, and a dagger in the dark.
But what of the lands to the West? The raids in the summer proved it was not merely legend. The place called North-Umbria holds many treasures – too many for them to bring home on their brief sojourn in the summer of 800AD. A plan has formed… If there is Northumbria, what about South-Umbria? And the people known as Picts, who were not averse to cordiality, warrior to warrior? Perhaps there is more to be gained there too.
The ties of Manafell – the Oaths sworn – will hold the island, and those with a glint in their eye will sail west.
