Skraelings
I was drifting asea when I thought of skraelings. Their canvas boats and dugouts challenging the dragon ships as they neared the west.
I found a very good site @ http://www.heritage.nf.ca/aboriginal/beothuk.html in case you are interested.
The sea born and the forest born quite a different man than the city born English and French but who do you see when you look around now?
The beothuk seem much more Fenris' sort - wild in that 'I won't be bullied nor tamed' sort of way, yet something good in there somewhere if you don't push too hard. They lost but he still makes those chains groan in the dark depths of the mountain.
A toast then to those we've mistreated along the way, "we remember you".
