History

In the 870s, the Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan travelled around the region of Rygjafylke after escaping the custody of Kjotve the Cruel's Wolf Clan soldiers.[1] Along her journey in Rygjafylke, Eivor looked around the area of Elgrfors, west of Fornburg, and came across a dead body and note, which stated that a "great elk" had caused the victim's fatal wounds. Eivor came across the great creature itself at a icy waterfall above the dead body. Upon entering its domain, Eivor startled the elk and the legendary animal roared and then began to attack the warrior. After a lengthy battle, Eivor killed the creature and collected its head as her prize.[2]

Behind the scenes

Regardless what time of day or night Eivor fights the creature, the weather will immediately change to a downpour of snow, decreasing visibility and thereby somewhat camouflaging the elk.
