Inga Njalsdóttir

Inga Njalsdóttir (also spelt Njallsdóttir or Njallsdottir), known as Inga Hallbjörnsdóttir from 1642 when she was adopted into the Royal Family of Elwynn as the daughter of Hallbjörn Haraldsson, born in 1615, was an Elwynnese and Vanic noblewoman.

Inga was born in the year 1615 to Laird Njáll Hámundarson of the House Kaupsted and Lafði Aðísla Kárisdóttir of the House of Gráskinna at the ancient fortress of Fímmhjertehǫll in the Mysterious Isles. Her natural parents were both high-flying employees of the Sameinaða Erlendur Kaupsýsla Einokun Félagið (SEKEF); her father an auditor, her mother a banker.

For four years little Inga grew up happily on the Mysterious Isles, being doted on by her parents as well as other family and relatives of hers who showered the little one with attention and gifts.

In the year 1619, subsequent to the event which is known as the Ayreon-Kalirion Restoration, Inga moved to Elwynn with her parents. They had been ordered by the SEKEF to take up residence in the aforesaid Flower of the North to aid and assist with setting up shop again after Prince Jonathan of Elwynn had returned to the SEKEF the considerable assets which had been seized from the aforesaid corporation by the Elwynnese State during the days of the Coordinated State and had remained state property during the subsequent Communist rule.

Inga and her family took up residence in the city of Avaldsnes - the home of a Valtian/Storish community of merchants from whom the Froyalanish and Wintergleamish partially descend - where they moved into a mansion called Villa Beztroski, which once had been the holiday residence of Duchess Sirithil nos Fëanor of Elwynn in the Wintergleam area.

In 1623, Inga Njallsdottir inherited the Jómsborg in Tuulersbýur from her great-grandmother. At that time Tuulersbýur, which was not yet known by that name, was outside the governance of any established state and the bands of Norse and Froyalanish settled around the Jómsborg experienced frequent altercations with the Batavian natives. In that light it is perhaps not surprising that, in the same year of her inheritance, a devastating fire took hold in the citadel which raised the western ramparts and arsenal. After surveying the damage Inga hired Elw architects to rebuilt the ruined site in accordance with a palatial design more in keeping with the fashion of Eliria following the Kalirion Restoration.

In 1642, Hallbjörn adopted Inga has his own daughter, and as such she became a member of the House of Ettlingar Freyu and of the Order of the Holy Lakes

She was exiled from Elwynn and Shireroth in 1651 during the Auspicious Occasion. It is unknown what happened to her afterwards, only that she had tried accessing her Elwynnese banking accounts in 1655 with no luck. She was not reportedly not seen in Stormark (where she was considered "missing"), and as such it is unknown whether she survived the destruction of Stormark in 1685.
