Thanks for sharing yourinterpretation and yeah, the Vikings were pretty interesting, much more than what one is lead to believe. It's difficult though as they never write anything down and the word of mouth transfer of folklore is subject to change over the years, I guess like the written word when it is re-written though.
Anyway, I think there's some good lessons to be learned from delving into their folklore and we can benefit.
Thanks for taking the time to respond.
