Wigbert
Wigbert was an Anglo-Saxon boy, who served as an apprentice, spy, and thief for the Order of the Ancients member, The Quill during the 9th century in Wincestre. He was the brother of Aelwyn, an Anglo-Saxon girl who worked as his partner of crime for The Quill.
Biography
Wigbert's childhood is unknown, but as a young orphan boy, Wigbert was found and then put to work for The Quill. Like The Quill's former work, Wigbert was used as one of many children, who gathered knowledge by either stealing or spying all around Wincestre. In addition, Wigbert worked closely with Aelwyn, his sister.[1]
Two children, Wigbert and Aelwyn, were seen, setting a haystack aflame. Wigbert and Aelwyn were then chased by Anglo-Saxon soldiers, but as well by the Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan. After Eivor found Aelwyn, Wigbert came in and was shocked to see the Dane in front of him and took a step back. After Eivor dealt with incoming Quill's thugs, Wigbert was told by Aelwyn to give the item he stole from the previous thugs to Eivor, who asked for The Quill. The item was a key to the underground sewers and this gave the location and final clue to the true identity of The Quill, Hilda.[1]
After Eivor defeated Hilda, Wigbert decided he wanted to do something good in life, and joined the church's teachings at Wincestre Seminary. At some point Eivor entered the seminary and encounted Wigbert again, explaining his sister went in hiding, but that he didn't want to join her anymore, and instead wanted to learn things.[2]
