So You Fancy Estrid, Eh? A Viking's Guide to (Maybe) Winning Her Heart (or at Least Getting Out of England)
Ah, Estrid. The Saxon wife with eyes that could melt a Valkyrie's helmet and a voice that's more soothing than a post-raid nap. Let's face it, you're not the only Viking who's smitten. But fear not, fellow plunderer, for this guide will be your longship to love (or at least a swift escape from a grumpy king).
Finding Estrid: Not Exactly Hidden Like Odin's Stash of Mead
First things first, forget scaling mountains or braving mythical beasts. Estrid can be found hanging around Essex, specifically the town of Colchester. Just don't confuse her with a decorative shield maiden. She's the one who looks like she'd rather be sailing the seas than stuck in a loveless marriage (which, honestly, same).
Operation: Fake-Kidnap for Freedom (Because Apparently Divorce is a Foreign Concept)

Now, Estrid's not exactly free and single. Here's where things get interesting. You'll be tasked with, ahem, "helping" her escape her not-so-charming husband. Think of it as a Viking social service mission, with the added bonus of maybe getting a kiss at the end (or, you know, just getting out of dodge before King Grumpy-Pants sends his army after you).
Winning Her Heart: It's Not Just About Brutality (Although That Helps)
Alright, so Estrid admires a strong warrior. But there's more to her than meets the eye (or, well, axe). She craves adventure and a partner who respects her. Here's where your charm comes in, if you have any under that thick beard. Be a good listener, offer a shoulder to cry on (metaphorical, hopefully), and maybe even show off your impressive braid-untangling skills. Who knows, she might just see you as more than just a muscle-bound raider.

How To Get Estrid Ac Valhalla |
The All-Important Choice: Love or Loot?
This is where things get tricky. Helping Estrid escape means leaving England behind. Are you ready to ditch your newfound settlement and sail the seas with your maybe-girlfriend? Or are the riches of England too tempting to leave? The choice is yours, but remember, a life of plunder can get lonely.
Tip: Rest your eyes, then continue.![]()
Bonus Tip: Don't Be a Braggart
Seriously, Eivor. We all know you're a badass Viking warrior. But Estrid might be more impressed by your humility than by how many Saxons you've squashed. A little modesty goes a long way.
QuickTip: Skim for bold or italicized words.![]()
Remember, Vikings: Love is a Battlefield (But Hopefully Not Literally This Time)
Winning Estrid's heart (or escaping with your head) takes more than just brute force. Be a good listener, show some respect, and maybe even crack a joke or two (just make sure it's actually funny). With a little luck, you'll either find love or at least a new sailing buddy. Now get out there and conquer that love life (or the nearest Saxon outpost, whichever)!
