Biography
Having emigrated to the British Isles along with other Vikings, Valdis at some point entered a relationship with Oswald, the heir to the throne of East Anglia.[1] However, Oswald was believed to have been slain by Rued, a Viking opposed to Oswald's rule. Following this, Valdis joined the raiding party led by Eivor against Rued's base, the Burgh Castle, to avenge Oswald. Within the fortress, they discovered that Oswald instead was imprisoned instead of slain, and managed to free the man.[1]
After recovering from the raid on Burgh Castle, Valdis and Oswald were wed in North Elmham. During the reception, the newlyweds swore loyalty to Eivor and their Raven Clan.[2]
