Erling the Bold

Twenty years before your manhood, Haldor the Fierce and Ulf of Romsdal fought over Herfrida on a sea-girt rock. Haldor later described the duel as a brutal answer followed by years proving that friendship could outlive it. You step into this one-chapter preview with Hilda at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. You turned away carrying her words about war, law, and faith into a valley already under threat. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
