Ever since I heard about the Maine Penny, it has captured my imagination. A single silver coin, lost for centuries, found in the soil of a distant land where no Viking should have been. How did it get there? Who carried it across the waves?
Our next story is a tale imagined how it might have gotten there.
Long before maps carved the edges of the world, Tormund the Far-Traveled set sail for Vinland, a trader seeking furs and timber. But what he carried in his pouch was more than just silver—it was a mark of fate, an artifact tied to a secret older than men, older than even the gods.
In the land of the Skraelingjar, where the forests whisper and the standing stones guard forgotten truths, he will uncover the weight of a curse buried beneath the earth for a reason. A shadow bound by silver, waiting for the right hands to lift its chains.
The question is—will Tormund set it free?
