As a child, Hunwald grew up in Lincoln surrounded by his father and the family housekeeper, [[Raeganhere]]. As he grew up, Abbess [[Acha]] used to take care of him, like a surrogate mother, during his youth, as she taught him the scriptures of her [[Christianity|God]]. Hunwald also grew up hunting with his father, but to no avail in finessing his skill with a [[bow]]. However, Hunwald always remembered that his father stated that he was proud of him, nonetheless. <ref name="HV">''Assassin's Creed: Valhalla'' – [[Homecoming (Valhalla)|Homecoming]]</ref><ref name="SFW">''Assassin's Creed: Valhalla'' – [[Salve for a Fresh Wound]]</ref>

	During the Shiremoot, a tie occurred between Hunwald, Aelfgar, and Herefrith, each with four votes, with Eivor as the deciding vote.

	After the moot, a sudden change happened in Lincolnscire as Bishop Herefrith declared war against Hunwald, Aelfgar, and the people of Lincolnshire. Hunwald and Aelfgar prepared a siege at [[Ancaster\|Anecastre]], as Eivor arrived to help. Hunwald was admittingly shocked as he recalled the bishop and his father to be the best of friends.

	If Eivor chose Hunwald or Aelfgar as ealdorman, bishop Herefrith would reveal himself as The Crozier of the Order at the moot and ambush everyone inside. Thus, Hunwald would fight alongside the nobles of the shire against Herefrith's guards. If Eivor instead chose Aelfgar or Herefrith as ealdorman initially, after killing the bishop, Hunwald asked for both him and Swanburrow to live with Eivor and her clan. Eivor would agree and the couple would have their own house in the settlement. However, if Hunwald is ealdorman, Swanburrow lives with the Raven Clan solely, as per Hunwald's favor to keep her safe from any future attacks.

			The book ''[[The World of Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Journey to the North – Logs and Files of a Hidden One]]'', however, identified Hunwald as the newly elected ealdorman.
