Characters in the Viking age
Sigurd Einarson "Firewalker"
They called him the Firewalker, for he was a man without fear, without remorse or hesitation; without sensitive nerve endings. He would sit in the circle of warriors on a winter’s night, there he would drink heartily, eat well, sing and make his boast, and then, when all was quiet and the flames licked high into the frosty night, he stood and walked out across the embers and his shoulder companions looked on in awe. “He is the Firewalker”, they whispered and gasped. Thus Gee the Spear took his name and his stand among the warriors of the Andredswold.
