Maldon (Old English: Maeldun) is a county town of Essex, England.
History
In 875, the Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir was requested by the ealdorman Birstan to travel to the town of Maeldun and find his lost love, Alfida.[1] When she arrived to search for Alfida, Eivor looked for her house outside the town and found no one in the vicinity except guards. The Viking investigated and soon found a cowering Eluric, who talked with Eivor and told her that Alfida had been taken by King Aelfred's men. Thus, Eivor left and promised to rescue Alfida for both Birstan's and Eluric's sakes.[2]
Surveying the town, Eivor blew up a destructible wall within a house, discovered a chest, opened it, and claimed the Oaken Kite Shield.[3]
