209A-Viking Legends: Bloodlines

A Norse saga in the truest sense of the word, this story follows one family through changing times of the Middle Ages. There are cursed swords, Viking love triangles, and why throwing stinky socks at a person whose only desire is to punch you in the face is a terrible idea.

The creature is the Yule goat, who hasn't been burned down yet! Maybe!
