Trolls are very common in Nordic folklore, and so when I came up with these characters I knew sort of what the world was going to be, a medieval fantasy world. But the more research I did about the past, the more I felt like I wanted the world to be grounded in history without any magic. What if trolls and other creatures had existed, and lived here in the north before humans settled. Maybe trolls lived side by side with humans for many years and are the source of where we got runes and the viking mythologies. Which led to the natural conclusion that when the Nordic countries were christened and the viking age ended, that that was also the time where trolls had to go into hiding and disappeared from history...
