A Gift From The Gods
One day, a Scandinavian farmer and his wife were wandering in the forest, searching for a lost sheep. They searched for hours but could not find the animal. Just as they turned to head home, the wife heard the cry of a baby. The couple followed the cries to a large rock formation, and underneath a large overhanging boulder they found a child. The boy was wrapped in leaves, and as it saw the couple approaching, its cries stopped. The wife found love for this child in her heart. They took him home and raised him as their son, since they could not have children of their own. They named the boy Sif, to honor the goddess of the earth; from which he must have been a gift.
Urbem Stygias
Sif grew to be a strong and smart boy. He learned stories and poems from the skalds, and his father taught him how to raise animals and tan leather into armor and clothes. When he came of age, Sif joined the raids, and quickly became a skilled fighter. He journeyed to distant lands and met many fighters and craftsmen, bringing home new knowledge and skills with every trip. His quick learning and adaptability did not go unnoticed. A veteran fighter known as Valin Phanuel saw great promise in Sif, and came to him with the proposal of carving out a new Hold for themselves. Sif saw glory in this and joined Valin. Together they gathered a band of fighters together and founded Urbem Stygias, the city-state of the Nords.
Menegroth
Urbem Stygias grew to be a quaint forest town, but Valin was not a true Nord. He and Sif were at odds on many issues. Once Valin turned to the White Christ, Sif decided that he was no longer fit to lead. The people of Urbem Stygias stood behind Sif as he challenged Valin to single combat. They were well matched, and the two fought from sunrise to sunset, but eventually Valin stumbled, and Sif took his victory. Urbem Stygias then held a moot, and elected Sif as its new leader. They cut all ties with their history, and took the name of Menegroth. Sif and his small council now govern over Menegroth, and they have seen great growth and success.
