The House of the Wolfings is a novel written by William Morris in 1889. The story is set in a fictional world inspired by Norse mythology and Germanic culture. The Wolfings are a tribe of people who live in a village in the forest, surrounded by enemies who threaten their way of life. The story follows the Wolfings as they prepare for battle against their enemies, the Romans, who are led by a powerful warrior named Hiarandi. The Wolfings are led by Thiodolf, a brave and charismatic leader who inspires his people to fight for their freedom. The novel explores themes of heroism, sacrifice, and the struggle for survival in a harsh and dangerous world. Morris's writing is known for its vivid descriptions of nature and his use of archaic language, which adds to the mythic quality of the story. The House of the Wolfings is considered a classic of fantasy literature and is a must-read for fans of the genre.Within under the Hall-Sun, amidst the woven stories of time past, sat the elders and chief warriors on the dais, and amidst of all a big strong man of forty winters, his dark beard a little grizzled, his eyes big and grey. Before him on the board lay the great War-horn of the Wolfings carved out of the tusk of a sea-whale of the North and with many devices on it and the Wolf amidst them all.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
