Question

A king of this name was given a bracelet by a man whom he had earlier tried to buy a bear from for double its price, but then let him sell that bear to his enemy, according to the Tale of Auðun (“OW-thoon”). Theodoric the Monk began his most famous work with a description of how a son of a man with this name killed the other sons of that man, giving him the epithet “brothers’ bane.” That man of this name is discussed (-5[1])by a raven and maid in the (*) “Raven Song.” A man with this name called “Greycloak” was succeeded by a man (10[1])who inspired a logo (10[1])of the Younger Futhark rune (10[1])bjarkan (10[1])with two extra lines. That king of this name honored his parents Gorm and Þyri (“THOO-ree”) in the Jelling (“YEHL-ing”) stones and has the epithet “Bluetooth.” For 10 points, give this name of Norwegian kings called “Fairhair” and “Hardrada.” ■END■
