Sigurd Cape

Sigurd Cape sails with Bui's contingent in the great battle-line at Fyrisfield, one of the Jomsburgers whose loyalty to Styrbiorn is tested by the sheer scale of the host arrayed against them. He belongs to the world of oath-bound warrior brotherhoods where a man's worth is measured by his place in the marshalled ranks and his willingness to stand when others slip away. His presence in the right wing alongside Bui anchors the reader in the texture of Viking comradeship that Eddison renders with such cold precision.
