No idea what could go wrong.
Hedeby · It’s his name day
He invited everyone.
Yes. Everyone.
It’s Sven’s name day, and Alga’s husband has one beautiful, uncomplicated dream: an absolutely legendary party.
So he invited the clans. And the Jötnar. And the monster folk. And Loki. Because why would anyone cause trouble when they could be celebrating Sven?
Hedeby may have a few concerns. Sven has a fur coat and a very good feeling about this.
