Note: King Aun sacrificed one of his sons to Odin every ten years in order to prolong
his life. After he had sacrificed nine sons and attained to the age of one hundred and
ninety, his subjects forbade him to sacrifice his tenth son, and he died of old age, so
weak that he had to suck nourishment from a horn like a baby. While his life was
ignobly prolonged, he missed out on the greatest glory a Viking could imagine - that of
dying nobly in battle. (legends of Swedish kings) [Royal Families of Medieval
Scandinavia, Flanders, and Kiev]
