Edward, Earl of Westerna
Edward, best known by his self proclaimed title Sir Edward, Earl of Westerna, was an Anglo-Saxon man active in the late 9th century. He was an ally to the Order of the Ancients member Al-Si'la.
Biography
Originally hailing from Westerna but having been granted lands further east where a military camp and later Ravensthorpe would stand, Edward was known for his anger at all Vikings and especially the Raven Clan. Once Al-Si'la came to Ravensburg in England, she manipulated that anger into her plans, having Sir Edward hire mercenaries to steal the Raven Clan's gear and launch raids with it to frame them. Edward agreed, thinking that he would use the stolen gold and silver to recover his lands and power. Unfortunately, while Sir Edward was rallying his men for another venture, Eivor Varinsdottir sneaked behind him and killed him for both tarnishing her clan's hard-won reputation and as part of a ploy to draw out Al-Si'la.[1]
