General Notes
- After a successful plundering mission to Svithiod, captured the wife of King Audils and made her his wife. Turned out she was his daughter by a liaison with Queen Alof of Saxonland. He and Yrsa had a son. [WBH - Sweden]
  The more assertive of the two sons of King Halfdan. In his dealings with women he was as ill-fated as he was heavy-handed, which is saying a lot, and his favorite vice bred instruments to plague him. His son, the glorious Hrolf, was the issue of his unwittingly incestuous marriage with his daughter Yrsa. [A History of the Vikings, p. 48]
