This is the unwritten tale behind a mysterious marker stone found in Minnesota - about an epic and desperate last Nordic voyage to a rumored fertile land far to the west beyond Greenland. This story is about impatient young men eager to leave the doomed Norse peninsula - just as nation building, the Roman church, and the black plague closed in around them. The participants include the Norse grandson of a seafaring discoverer-explorer, a dissident Swedish Cistercian Priest disillusioned by Church corruption, and a Sami girl who recognized that the free-roaming nomadic days of her own people would soon be doomed as well.
