Introduction

"Heill, handsome. I've been watching you a while."

"Calm down, handsome. It is wiser to be grateful, but allow me to introduce myself. My name is Solveig Olafsdottir. I'm not just any woman. I'm a skjaldmo."

"By your face, I see you do not know what I'm talking about. Well, I must admit that there are not many like me, and here even less than in my own land, Northvevgr. So you can understand, a skjaldmo is a virgin who takes the way of weapons. Also poetry, since poetry and war come from the same impulse."

"The main thing is that I have followed and studied you the past few days. I will join you now. You have a great future ahead ,if my intuition serves em well, and I want to share your luck."

"Oh, luck can't be valued too much. this is a harsh, harsh world. The timid die young, handsome, and the bold quickly follow."

"But I am a skjaldmo. I fight like a Valkyrjar and sing as Balder sang before that cunning Loki finished him off mid-stanza. The jarls of Northvegr and Danmark would pay a fortune and their left thumb for me to join them, but the one I choose is you, handsome!"
