Welcome to CHAPTER 32 of the Kinsmen Die podcast, home of fantasy fiction based on Norse mythology that’s written and read by me, Matt Bishop.In this podcast I read my first novel, Kinsmen Die, one chapter at a time with mini recaps and/or excursions into the myths I’ve referenced in the text.Today, we’re back with Vidar Odinsson. Since it’s been a few chapters since we were him let me explain…no, there is too much, let me sum up.Vidar is the jarl of a district named Vithi. One of the towns in that district, Hals, had been attacked by the Jotunn and burned to the ground. Vidar fought the Jotunn and killed them all…in so doing he was completely taken over by the disir, the spirit, inside him. That spirit makes Vidar a baresark. Luckily his father, Odin, arrived and saved Vidar. Once he recovered, thanks to his half-brother Baldr, Vidar convinced his father to let him figure out how the Jotunn had gotten all the way to Hals undetected.And that is where we find Vidar in this chapter.Please visit the podcast's public site for the episode transcript, which includes the entire chapter.
