Summary Norna Gest was the son of a Danish man named Thord of Thinghusbit, who once dwelt on the estate of Gr ning in Denmark . When he was born, three Norns arrived and had foretold the child s destiny. Two of them gave him good gifts. However Skuld , the youngest of the Norns, deeming that the two others made rather light of her, determined to render void their promises of good fortune for the child. So she prophesied that his life was to last no longer than that of a candle standing lit beside the cradle. The eldest Norn instantly extinguished the flame and asked his mother to hide it well. When Norna Gest had grown up he became the care taker of the candle and he is said to have lived for 300 years. He took part in the battles of Sigurd the V lsung, spent time with Ragnar Lodbrok s son Bj rn Ironside and his brothers, with Starkad , with the Swedish king Sigurd Ring , with King Erik at Uppsala ref 1 1 , with King Harald Fairhair and with King Hlodver ref 2 2 in Germany . According to legend, when King Olaf Tryggvason tried to convert the Norse to Christianity , he brought Norna Gest to his court. In the third year of the reign of King Olaf, Norna Gest came into the presence of the king and asked to be admitted to his bodyguard. He was uncommonly tall and strong and somewhat stricken in years. Norna Gest afterward permitted himself to be baptized at the king s desire and lit the candle that the norn Skuld had prophesied about. In accordance with the prophecy, when the candle failed, Norna Gest died. Notes note 1 1 Eir kr at Upps lum is almost a default name for the Swedish king.
