<font:3>
Our story is set in a time before Erik the Red left for Greenland or Christendom arrived in Scandinavia. During the early ninth century the lands which would become known as Norway later on were still divided and ruled by many petty viking princes and chieftains. The harsh climate of the time allowed many ancient rites, traditions and values to persist and prosper. This was also true in our small chiefdom of Vestfold.

The chiefdom's regents were two young brothers-in-law of noble descent that had come to Vestfold as infants. There was Olaf Gudrodson, related to the rulers of Raumarike and blessed with great vigor and strength. As the older brother he had already gathered a significant amount of experience commanding and ruling over his subjects. Standing by his side was the ambitious and astute Halfdan Svarti - called the Black. But even though both brothers were tied by family bonds, dark clouds of conflict brewed over the heads of Vestfolds inhabitants with the lingering question of succession to the chiefdom's throne not yet settled.

Now YOU may take on the role of Vestfold and lead them to a prosperous future!
