Òlafur

Description

Four enormous rivers surround the part of the land in the middle of the Arctic Ocean where the city of Thule is located.

The barbarian warriors descended from the lineage of the giant Ymir are skilled navigators who live camped on the coasts of the southern Arctic lands.They are divided into tribes, often at war with each other. Each leader, to become such, must pass a particular test, different for each, in which is put at stake his own life: who passes, is considered worthy to lead the tribe, who succumbs, according to local tradition is not worthy to aspire to that role and is rightly punished for daring to aspire to a role that does not compete.

Ólafur had to fight with his bare hands against a bear and to kill it in order to demonstrate to be the leader of the Bergelmer tribe. To this day, he still keeps the skin of that bear as a trophy and uses it as a fur coat to protect himself from the cold while traveling on his drakkar in the cold northern seas.

He and his nomadic brothers did not take part in the defense of Thule against the XIX Legio, but left to discover new lands, reaching the Americas, as is known, well before the arrival of Columbus…
