Join us round the fire as we begin telling one of the greatest sagas of Old Norse literature: The Saga of the Volsungs. In this first part of the story learn about the divine origins of the Volsung family, the betrayal that nearly destroyed them all, and the wise but sinister god that followed their lives with a close and ominous interest!
