Hjorr Halfsson and Ljufvina Bjarmarsdottir declined to pledge fealty, though surrendered their territory as they took their people overseas.

Eivor's father, jarl Styrbjorn Sigvaldisson, bent the knee to Harald, much to the outrage of his son Sigurd, who stormed out in protest. Harald cautioned them that though he would welcome their presence, they would be required to serve under him if they chose to stay in Norway. In response, Eivor, Sigurd, and other Raven Clan members would sail to establish their own settlement in England.Assassin's Creed: Valhalla – The Seas of Fate
