Salt wind screams at black rock.
A child faces the surf—a legend steps forward.
Bjorn Ironside is forged on Scandinavia’s coast: oar in his hands, frost in his lungs, oath on his tongue.
The sagas say his sides could not be pierced; history remembers the wake his longship carved.
From hearth-smoke halls to shield-ring drills in mail and helm, he learns the law of the North: stand, strike, endure.
Fjords become roads.
Storms become teachers.
Across the Baltic and beyond, his prow finds distant shores, and fear travels faster than his sails.
This is a doorway into an Old Norse world—where memory hardens into steel, and a boy becomes a leader who shaped its horizon.
