Kristin Lavransdatter
Authorship not stated
You are Kristin Lavransdatter, lodged at a convent in Oslo until your arranged marriage. Permission to visit the autumn fair stretches to a musician's tune, a wrong turn in the rain, and two men who notice the convent token at your friend's belt. The rider who scatters them gives his name as Erlend Nikulausson of Husaby, a name Ingebjorg knows from a scandal the Church judged severely. He walks you back at a distance and waits outside the closed gate to see whether you look back.
