The Lore of the Kingdom of Valkreich (Server #10)

Post by Sigvatr » 26 Oct 2014, 15:49

Hello everybody!
I'm starting a guild called the Kingdom of Valkreich, an RP-oriented guild on Official Server number 10. Iv'e been thinking up lore for various things such as the Kingdom's founding history and my personal character's backstory, so I figured I'd post them here on the forums for all to read and hopefully enjoy!

I will be adding more to this thread as time goes on, and I encourage anyone who has any lore of their own for their characters, guilds, land or whatever other topic to post them in the comments below!

SKOL!



The Lore (Settlement Backstory):

The Saga of Sigvatr Jotunbane:
The Founding of Hjorstaad's Landing


Across the seas unto the North
a Distant Isle lay;
a frozen land of men and giants,
the home of Jotunbane

Twas Sigvatr of the village Gert
was named as Jotunbane,
for wading through blood of Jotunbrood -
though a tale for another day

Across the seas he did sail
for blood and fame and gold,
until his eyes did find Far Shores,
far south of Distant Cold

When forth he set to reach dry land,
the skies rang forth with shock;
a storm did spring and roar from Hell
to dash ship hull 'gainst rock

When cold sea god did claim his ship
dark waves o'er port had leapt,
sea god did spare the Jotun-Hewer
and to sand of land he swept

Awakened on this Far Shore, he stood
and trudged from sea to sea,
until to Western coast he stopped
to build his legacy

On shore he found the trophy-skull
from Hjorstaad - most vile of Jotun,
which from his ship was cast before;
this site the Gods had chosen

And on that day, he paid homage;
a sacrifice to gods demanding,
and King of Valkreich, Jotunbane
had founded Hjorstaad's Landing.
