When Tudor explorers returned from the New World, they brought back a name out of half-forgotten Viking legend: skraylings. Red-sailed ships followed in the explorers wake, bringing Native American goods and a skrayling ambassador to London. But what do these seemingly magical beings really want in Elizabeth I s capital?
