Jarl Donar an Hindar calls a meeting of the Jarls together. Lady Bran is accused by Cerys. Birna is indignant and refutes the accusation.
(Arnvald is alive) He is summoned and testifies against Birna Bran.
(Arnvald is dead) Cerys explains how Arnvald acted on behalf of Bran.
Birna scoffs at such accusations until you produce the letter from Birna to Arnvald. This still isn’t enough for the Jarls, and they are about to retire and seek punishment against the an Craites when Birna’s son Svanrige turns against his mother! Birna is furious and dismayed, but Jarl Donar orders her chained to a rock to perish of hunger and thirst, with sea fowl pecking apart her remains. Svanrige will be banished.
