 * Legend about Sigrid: Within the Vestkyster realm stories about Sigrid's (the previous queen Astrid's biological daughter) exploits spread like wildfire, most notably a tale about her slaying the legendary dragon Fáfnir at a young age, which solidified her reputation as a fierce warrior and bold fighter. These stories themselves were highly likely spread by Regent Askr and his inner circle, however Sigrid's prowess in combat is true to the propagated narratives.
 * Expansion: From Oslo, more expansion is ordered to the north and northeast in search for more farmland.
 * Western Exploration (823 - ): A few longships (5-7) were sent westward from Leirvik to explore new land, sailing in a northwestern direction. News are to come from this expedition.
