In 985, in the lead-up to the Battle of Fýrisvellir, Östen Jorundsson and Alferth were approached at their campfire by Skarpe, who had been rummaging in the Fyrisvellir mud for coins, which led Alferth to dismiss him as a fool. Skarpe, however, was adamant that King Eadgils could not have gotten every piece of gold that Hrólfr had thrown. Östen stepped in before their infighting could escalate.[1]
