General Notes

Svegde was the King of Svitjod as well as a place in Russia where he got his wife Vana. The Saga tells of his strange demise, also in a state of drunkenness like his father. One night when Svegde and his men had been drinking excessively and were about to retire for the night, Svegde looked out and saw a large stone with a dwarf sitting under it. He rushed to the stone where the dwarf opened a door and urged Svedge to enter in order to that he could see Odin. Svegde went in and never came out.
