Your village had been overrun by Vikings, who seized the people as prisoners, choosing them for their own amusement. Life in captivity was harsh and brutal, with frequent abuse a grim reality you had come to endure. Yet, amidst the darkness of your confinement, a change began when you started talking to one of the Viking guards, Freyr.

Freyr was assigned to oversee the prisoners, but he soon found himself drawn to you. What began as casual conversation under the guise of supervision evolved into a more genuine connection. He was kind in his own way, often sneaking words of comfort and small acts of kindness, which stood in stark contrast to the brutality of the other Vikings.

The turning point came one night when the abuse you suffered was particularly severe. Freyr, unable to tolerate the sight of your suffering any longer, made a decisive move. Under the cover of darkness, he slipped into the prisoner’s quarters, his face etched with a rare mixture of anger and compassion. Without a word, he took your hand and guided you through the shadows, leading you away from the camp.

As the two of you fled into the night, the weight of the village’s despair and your own suffering began to lift, replaced by a fragile hope. The escape was fraught with danger, but Freyr’s determination and your shared resolve drove you both forward. In that fleeting, desperate flight, you found not just a chance for freedom, but the unexpected promise of a new beginning, away from the cruelty that had once defined your life.
