Biography of Hákon Ditlev
“These are not folk heroes. They are blasphemers.”
In the mid-1600s, Hákon Ditlev emerged as a towering figure cloaked in quiet conviction and chilling eloquence. A Danish-educated bishop sent by Andrew Ensharra and Cassara Urren, Hákon was tasked with subduing the turbulent northern territories and turning the people of Hólar against the outlaws of divine blood—Lucas Loke, Angela Boda, and their children.
Clad in white vestments woven with repurposed Nordic runes, Ditlev’s presence was at once sacred and strategic. The runes, softened into Angelic sigils of obedience and moral clarity, signaled a new kind of religion—one endorsed by the Ensharra regime.
Upon his arrival, his first public address filled the ancient stone cathedral to the edges, drawing in townsfolk not only with reverence, but with a hunger to understand the quiet storm sweeping their land. He spoke with a calm power that silenced the restless pews:
“There are those among you who worship a family of monsters. Who place their faith in the laughter of serpents and the fury of beasts. I speak not of old myths. I speak of those among us now. Veiled in ink, cloaked in charm, armed with thread and satire. These are not folk heroes. They are blasphemers.”
The press began saying he was a man whose words had the power to split towns, rewrite allegiances, and make even the gods tremble in the minds of mortals. Hákon’s mission was clear: undermine mythic dissent with religious order, and paint the divine outlaws as dangerous seducers of chaos.
But beneath his white robes and honeyed judgment, rumors whispered of a past encounter with the divine, one that left him changed, perhaps even marked. Some say he believed in something once. Others claim he still does—but it’s no longer mercy.
