Hemthorpe
Hemthorpe was the main settlement of Clan Hemmingsons in 9th century Snotinghamscire.
History
In 876, Hemming Jarl was bedridden after dying from an illness as his son, Vili Hemmingson, and close family friend, the Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir came upon hearing the news. Inside the settlement's longhouse, Hemming was near death as his advisor and loyal advisor, Trygve, stood by while Vili and Eivor came soon afterwards. Inside, Vili sat by Hemming, who was happy to see Eivor and Vili together again. In his last remarks, Hemming told Vili how proud he was of who he is and what he will be, before taking his last breath.[1]
As preparations for Hemming's funeral came, Eivor came to help Trygve as the villagers of Hemthorpe became hazardous. Doing her best with helping a man from lethal "dragons," aiding a brewer retain her voda from a fire, and settling an argument between a crowd of Norse and an Anglo-Saxon man, Eivor assured Trygve of calming down the constiuents of Hemthorpe. Trygve, still sadden by Hemming's death, thanked Eivor, who assured him that his pain will subside.[2]
Concerned about Snotinghamscire's fate of a new jarl, Eivor consulted with the settlement's seer. The seer proclaimed that they need to sacrifice sheep at the bottom of The Sleeping Jotun before the Hemming's funeral. Eivor agreed and followed the seer's lead out of her home.[3] From her travels within the settlement, Eivor found and broke through a wooden covering of a well, which she climbed down. Eivor found a chest guarded by a snake, but opened it and retrieved a Tungsten ingot.[4]
