Round 1

The entourages of the Jarls and Kings were greeted by an old man at Gulating. He gave each of the lords the blessing of Odin and introduced himself as the Hovgod that would conduct this session at Gulating. The Lords was a little baffled at seeing such an old Hovgod. Usually they were young and handsome. There was a strange light in the eyes of the old man but wisdom radiated from them.

The old man raised his voice when all had arrived.
“Welcome Kings and noble men, sons and daughters of noble men, the men and women in service of noble men, soldiers and others. Time is pressing and we are gathered here to settle a dispute between two Kingdoms. The kings in these two kingdoms are here. Likewise a third king who will mediate between the two. Every king has brought one of his Jarls as an advisor. Is this correct?”

There was a unison “Correct” from his audience.
“Good” said the old man and while he turned to leave added: “You know what to do”.
The Kings with their entourage knew. They were to set three camps in this area; the disputers furthest away from each other and the mediator in the middle.
The rulers didn’t know each other by face and this was what was wanted. The Kings and their Jarls would walk, sleep and dine with their commoners, because at the Ting all were equal. Also this would avoid the Kings being targeted and killed in their sleep by lawbreakers. It was against the law to murder when in session at a Ting. Other petty disputes could be solved with a Holmgang.
