Heika of Friesland (died 870s), also known as The Sickle, was a Frisian member of Order of the Ancients, holding the rank of title of Palatinus in the Wardens of Faith sect. She worked as a baker in the market of Colcestre in Essexe within the Kingdom of Wessex.

Biography[edit | edit source]

Growing near the waters of Friesland, Heika became quite wise about the deadly inflictions of the weever fish. Later, Heika, with the guidance of the Order, began a bakery of her own means. However, Heika had certain bread slices, seasoned with Weever fish scales, given to customers the Order wanted dead.[1] Becoming a part of the English branch of the Order, Heika was based in the city of Colcestre in Essexe, running a bakery shop near the markets while using the Maeldun's Saltern Camp to obtain her supply of weever fish.[2]

In the 870s, Heika's membership within the Order was uncovered by the Viking Eivor Varinsdottir, who was working on behalf of the Hidden One Hytham to rid England of the Order. Eivor recovered clues of her identity from a note which revealed Heika's use of the saltern camp for her supply of fish. Within the warehouse, Eivor further uncovered Heika's location and occupation as a baker near the markets. This last clue enabled the shieldmaiden to track down and assassinate Heika, ending her poisonous business.[2]

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • The first clue that Eivor receives for identifying Heika can be obtained from assassinating either Havelok, The Billhook at his villa in Lincoln, Beneseck, The Bell at Brimclif Monastery in Suthsexe, Yohanes Loukas, The Oil at Fearnhamme in Hamptunscire, or the Zealot Woden, who patrols in Cent.
  • Assassinating Heika may provide a clue to the identity of Yohanes if it has not already been obtained elsewhere. It is interesting to note that this chain of identification can work in either direction; this relationship is similar to the one shared between Havelok and Eanbhert.
