In southern Westmanland, a man leaves home to fulfil an old oath to a man he never liked.
Two weeks later a teenage girl crawls through a meadow, away from a burning homestead.
This is a story told in the 900s, had the world worked like the old svear knew it did.
Storyline one is now complete, but you can continue reading about our heroines journey down the Rus rivers here: Over the sea and down the rivers Original - Mature - Historic
Update 3/1-23
I did some interesting reading about travelling the rivers down to the Black sea, which has forced me to revise some things in this otherwise complete story. Nothing major, but the timeline has been pushed one year between Part 9 and 10.
You want to know more? I now have a post with history notes in the ongoing thread:
