Griseld was a 9th century Anglo-Saxon woman from Suthsexe, England.

In the 870s, Griseld was tied up by her father, who offered her up as a sacrifice to a satanic sea beast, Aflanc, which he claimed was responsible for the recent floods. Fortunately, her cries were heard by the Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir, who investigated the matter. Eivor soon dived in the river and found that the monster was a sunken longship. However, Griseld's father revealed the truth and as he wanted an excuse to kill his daughter due to her disrespect, like her mother. Griseld disowned her father as the community banished him for his crimes.[1]
