I am slightly concerned by the inaccuracies, but more so at the oversights made in this. The most interesting parts about gunhild in the sagas are after her husbands death. In the kings’ sagas she travels back to Denmark with her sons and soldiers. She’s received with honors and forges an alliance with the king. She proceeds to elevate her sons to the status of kings all while wielding command of soldiers, a network of spies and an incredible amount of political power
