summary: 'A game between the sons of Njorfe and Viking leads to a killing and a
blood feud. Viking banishes the killer, but his sons accompany the exile and are
attacked through magic-aided winter warfare. Thorsten survives, later restores
Belé, marries Ingeborg after a spell is lifted, and with Belé and Angantyr gains
major treasures: the dragon ship Ellida and a magic ring guarded in a mound by
Soté''s ghost. The passage ends with the births and fosterage of Frithiof and
Ingeborg.'
