专辑简介
Based on historical facts the band tells a fictitious story about Swedish Vikings who journey for trade to Miklagard (Byzantium). Starting off from Uppsalla in Sweden the journey leads via the commercial centers Haithabu and Dorestadt through the Baltic Sea and the icy Neva to Ladoga and onwards to Kiew. From there the last part of the journey takes them down the Dnjepr into the black sea and finally to Miklagard. On their journey the daredevil Vikings meet among others the Urgofins and the Rus (ancestors of the Russians with Swedish descent) and visit the medieval Kiev. They have to fight numerous engagements to defend their valuable goods until finally after endless dangers and strains they gaze upon the famous city of stone, which seems to them like a world miracle. Franconian swords, amber and northern furs are strongly desired here and sell for astronomical prices, in return the Norsemen buy the goods treasured in their home countries such as glass, jewellery, spices and silk.
