gone fishing
That, I'm afraid, is it for the next ten days. I'm going fishing in the Norwegian forests, more or less where this story was set in fact. I hadn't planned to leave on such a cliffhanger, but there really isn't time for more.

This is really a wonderful story, and an excellent translation. PLEASE come back from vacation and finish it. I am very keen to read the rest.
Although I have only some now very dim recollections of reading stories in an introductory Swedish class many years ago, I do seem to recall that a fair number of them dealt with killing children (e.g. Att Doeda et Barn). Ultimately, I found it too depressing and went back to medieaval German. That's a shame, really, as it would be wonderful to be able to read this in the original.
