Biography of Elling Jørgensen
“This is not politics. It is mythogenesis.”
Elling Jørgensen was a trusted field scholar and intelligence operative for Andrew Ensharra, dispatched in 1755 to investigate troubling rumors surrounding Freda Winther and a hidden manor whispered about only in fragments of Norse epics and forbidden texts. A man of reason and ritual, Elling was known for his meticulous documentation, his ability to interpret lost tongues, and his unwavering loyalty to Andrew’s shadow network of arcane surveillance.
His mission: uncover the truth behind Ljosheim, the so-called Home of Light, a manor believed to exist only in myth. What he found instead would change the course of history—if he had survived to tell it.
Elling located Ljosheim in the forested hills outside Kongsberg. From a ridge cloaked in mist, he observed a young boy reading beneath a rune-carved pine, unaware that he was being watched. The boy, later confirmed to be Kaelum Vanir-Ensharra, bore none of the traits of a hidden bastard. In Elling’s final field journal entry, he wrote:
“The boy does not act like a nobleman’s bastard. He is trained like something older—like the past itself was given flesh again. This is not politics. It is mythogenesis.”
Elling saw Freda arrive in plain garb, a tome bound in a language older than Babylon tucked under her arm. That was the last anyone ever saw of him.
His horse returned alone. The saddle remained intact. His field notes, hidden within the seams, made it back to Andrew. Upon reading the last entry, Andrew Ensharra clenched the leather until it cracked. What exactly happened to Elling Jørgensen remains unsolved, but some say the forest of Ljosheim does not forget trespassers.
