Upon a darkened night
The flame of love was burning in my breast
And by a lantern bright
I fled my house while all in quiet rest
Shrouded by the night
And by the secret stair I quickly fled
The veil concealed my eyes
While all within lay quiet as the dead

Nørdhjem is a small settlement on Norway's rugged coast. It is the time of Harald Hårfagre - also known as King Harald Fairhair - and his greedy raids of the western seas and the lands beyond ... Svanhild Bjørnsdottir, the famous shieldmaid, has been called to Nørdhjem by a deep and disturbing dream. She finds her father's sister here with the jarl gone already to follow Harald's call.

It was late at night
You held on tight
From an empty seat
A flash of light
It will take a while
To make you smile
Somewhere in these eyes
I'm on your side

The Holmgang, or hólmganga, was a duel used to settle disputes. A holmgang was issued on matters of honor, legal disputes, ownership of property, restitution of debt, or vengeance. Any person could be challenged to a holmgang, regardless of social status. A holmgang could not be ignored once issued, nor rescinded, under penalty of nithing and being branded an outlaw.

Since Viking times, the Nordic people have had a long tradition of celebrating winter festivals. One of the festivals that has survived to this day is called "Yule" or "Yuletide, Yulefest". "Christmas; the Christmas season" is a blend of North Germanic tradition and Christian culture.
There is an argument in the literature that is related to another traditional German festival Mōdraniht (Modranect in English). Mōdraniht means "Night of the Mothers". Bede wrote the following in his De temporum ratione:
“Incipiebant autem annum ab octavo Calendarum Januariarum die, ubi nunc natale Domini celebramus. Et ipsam noctem nunc nobis sacrosa-nctam, tunc gentili vocabulo Modranicht, id est, matrum noctem appellabant: ob causam et suspicamur ceremoniarum, quas in ea pervigiles agebant. ”
According to the ancient tradition of the Vikings, on the night of December 24th, people will pay tribute to the eldest mothers in the tribe and the ancestors and mythology goddesses who have passed away. This includes both Frigg and Freya in Norse mythology in some stories the two often refer to the same person), and the three goddesses Matres (or Matronae) influenced by Roman culture. Source
