It’s been a long time since I took any time for myself to play video games, and I randomly had the idea that if I can drag myself out of bed early enough, I could revisit Skyrim and chat about the myths and legends that went into its worldbuilding. In this foray into a damp, spooky tunnel, I talk about Grettir’s Saga, one of the sagas of the Icelanders in which the antihero Grettir has two battles with undead creatures that directly inspired the draugr in Skyrim.
