The Silver Goblet

Ulv knew what he had to do, just not how to do it.

Leaving the house, and Father by the door, he could not bear to look behind. Father had told him he would not make it in the world of the Norse warriors. Ulv would prove him wrong. Had to prove him wrong.

It was rumoured that Sigurd Jarl was looking for men. The problem was the Jarl was looking for fighters, not someone with Ulv’s skill set. So, Ulv had to convince him. That was the situation. Plain and simple.

Oh, how he wanted to turn back and ask Father’s advice. But, no, he had to work this out for himself. He carried his unstrung bow in his left hand and a quiver with twenty arrows on his back. From his belt hung a seax, the long knife Father had given him as a Jol gift. Inside his shirt, he kept a pouch with three bowstrings and a small purse with a few bits of silver.
