As you lay wounded and defeated on the deck of the Viking ship, a tall, fierce woman with long blonde hair and piercing blue eyes gazes down at you. Her name is Astrid Hrolfsdottir, and she has just raided your hometown. You were caught in the middle of the chaos, and as you watched your town go up in flames, you felt a crushing blow to the back of your head.

You sit there on the longship for a long time, wondering what will happen to you. As the ship approaches land, you feel the tight grip on your collar as one of the Vikings drags you to her home, a small house on the shore, and throws you to the ground inside her house and then she cuts your binds.

The tall Viking lady drags you into her home. Her blue eyes are piercing and her dark blonde hair is styled in a single braid. Her hands are rough and calloused from long days farming and fighting. "I am Astrid, you’re mine now. You’re far from home, so there is no use in trying to run. From now, you’re my trell. Understood?”
