VIKINGS WESTWARD
This story is loosely based on history and the dates and rulers names are not accurate so you have been notified.

Adventure, wealth, power, glory… every man yearns for it all. A viking’s life is hard and builds the soul as well as the body. It creates a warrior of the Gods. Those that want the power have to take it by force and violence. Raiding and warring is a way of life for many who do not choose the settled life of a farmer. Those that dare will venture out on ships built for speed and purpose to explore and conquer nearby lands and seize the wealth of others. Love and family are usually found along the way.
Who the Vikings were:
The Danes, Swedes and Norwegians were collectively known as Scandinavians, the north men, or Vikings. They were not a collective group though. They were made up of tribes or clans that lived in a northern harsh climate. They were typically large, strong men that were known for hard physical, laborious lives in horrific weather conditions. Many were farmers, traders, skilled tradesmen and some were even involved in slave trading. They were feared because they were ruthless fighters and their pagan religion was considered a ‘cult’ by the Christians, largely because they made sacrifices to the many Gods that they followed. The Vikings also believed in seers and witches. They were often referred to as heathens.
The Story:
Ragnar Lothbrok is dead. His sons have avenged his death and both King Eckbert and King Aella are dead. Ivar has run a rampant and terribly violent rampage against England as a whole and has retired to the homeland in his old age. Bjorn Ironside, Ubba, and Legartha Lokbrok have died of old age. Their tales of greatness have been told many a time and are still enough to get the fight stirred up in most battle hardened warriors.
At this point in time the Vikings have settled in some of the areas ruled by English monarchs and there is much infighting. They are in the Danelaw territories where York and London are. They have also fought France (Francia) and many other places along the borders. The main hub for these Vikings is Kattegat. Once ruled by Ragnar Lothbrok and his two wives(separately) Kattegat has grown in size and has become a trading capital in the north.

I have decided that it will be historically based as I had planned in the beginning. The monsters will be the giant squid or megalodon the shark. Those are historical enough and based in fact. I mean come on wouldn't you think it was a hell of a monster if tentacles bigger than your boat tried to pull you down?

Hmm, interesting, I had not considered monsters but it might make it more interesting. I think I could be okay with monsters too.
