Kadlin was a 9th century Anglo-Saxon handmaiden to Queen Æthelswith of Mercia from Ledecestrescire, England.

History

In 873, the handmaiden was tasked by Queen Æthelswith to be her decoy while they were hiding in Templebrough Fort. After some time, they were soon found by Vikings step-siblings Eivor Varinsdottir and Sigurd Styrbjornsson, who were looking to capture the Queen. Kadlin pretended to be the queen while Æthelswith made her way out, pretending to be a handmaiden. However, Kadlin was interrogated by Sigurd about Burgred's whereabouts. Scared, Kadlin spoke honestly of not knowing of Burgred's location yet Eivor noticed that her hands were of a servant, not a queen. While Eivor chased after the real Æthelswith, Kadlin and the other handmaidens stayed with Sigurd.[1]

Afterwards, Kadlin found herself captured alongside her fellow handmaidens and Queen Æthelswith by the Great Heathen Army when they were taken to Repton. She stood beside her queen while Eivor convinced Æthelswith to reveal Burgred's location.[2]
