Östen Jorundsson
Östen Jorundsson was a Swedish farmer and warrior active during the 10th century. He was married to Hilla and had three children, Tørgils, Agnes, and Greta. He also owned a slave, Arne the Dane, whom he captured himself during a raid.[1]
A staunch supporter of King Eric the Victorious, Östen fought in the Battle of Fýrisvellir against the invading forces of Styrbjörn the Strong, and became a close ally of the Hidden One Thorvald Hjaltason, who later entrusted him with one of the prongs of the Trident of Eden recovered during the battle.[1]
He is an ancestor of David and Grace Collins, two 21st-century siblings who became involved in the Assassin-Templar War.[1]
Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]
Concept work by Studio Lounak initially had David and Grace reliving the memories of a female Viking, possibly Östen's wife or one of his daughters.
