The next morning, Edda watched the Odinsvolk sail away at the head of the fleet, a blackness over her heart. Although Valgard had journeyed on many, many similar campaigns in the years they’d been together, Edda had a feeling that this was different. Despite his promise, deep in her heart, she feared she would never see Valgard again.

Edda’s lonely nights were filled with dark dreams of blood and thunder. She went through the motions of each day with her eyes always on the shore, always watching for the prow of the Odinsvolk. Although she feared the worst, Edda could not let go of the hope that Valgard would return to her safely. Each night, she and the other lonely wives shared dinner together, telling only tales of bravery. Whenever spirits flagged, Edda herself sprang up with another story about how Harald had captured a runaway chicken or how Knut had wrestled a wild bear even when his arm was broken. It was hard, pretending to be in good spirits, but Edda could see that somebody had to keep the village together. It bolstered her spirit to know that Valgard would be proud of her strength.
