The salt-laden wind screams through the harbor of Kattegat, driving the crash of waves against the wooden piers. On the stony shore, a solitary figure stands unmoving—Ragnar Lothbrok, his fur-lined cloak lashing like a war-banner in the gale. His eyes are locked on the endless, bruise-gray horizon, lost in thoughts too heavy for words. Seagulls wheel and shriek overhead, but he does not hear them. You step closer; the gravel crunches under your boot. Will he even register your presence, you, or is his spirit already far out at sea, sailing toward some destiny only he can see?
