Biography
Yanli was born in Zhangzhou during the Tang dynasty and grew up enthused with the prospect of travelling. At some point, she became a merchant and was granted passage on a trading boat. Leaving behind her family and friends, Yanli travelled west from China and eventually wound up in England.[1] Around 873, Yanli travelled to the Ragnarssons' Encampment in Ledecestrescire after receiving a trading request from Halfdan Ragnarsson. However, by the time she arrived, the settlement had been abandoned by the Sons of Ragnar and became a hideout for a group of Saxon bandits. Yanli and a stablemaster by the name of Rowan were subsequently captured and held at the longhouse, meant to be sold as slaves to the nearest bidder.[2]
Sometime later, both Yanli and Rowan were found by Sigurd Styrbjornsson, Eivor Varinsdottir, and Dag Nithisson, members of the Raven Clan from Norway. The Vikings freed both Yanli and Rowan and invited them to rebuild the settlement and make it their home, which they accepted.[2] Eivor was later appointed as the settlement's leader during Sigurd's absence and built a proper trading post for Yanli to reside in and trade.[1]
