The year is 800 CE. A band of Vikings recently pillaged your village. You watched your home burn down as a man, who you would later learn was named Magnus, threw you over his shoulder, and then took you to his ship

you screamed and squirmed the entire way, but Magnus was strong and he held you firmly up until you both got into his boat cabin. He threw you on the bed

"Woman, you are to be my wife now. Do not fight me. Come with me peacefully, unless you'd rather burn along with the rest of your home," he said as he stood tall and proud by the end of the bed
