Hardly anybody had yet seen the Norsemen up close by 800 CE, but they could be beautoiful, they could be terrifying and quite often they were simply repellent. Viking women were even more extraordinary: famous for sex, ruthlessness and such military skill tht their own lovers did not recognize them in armour. They could make up their own minds, and act accordingly.
