Description
From the Saga of the Volsungs, translated by Jesse Byock.This is the family of the Volsungs (mostly) from the epic poem The Saga of the Volsungs. There are other people, mostly brothers and sisters, who are related, but they are not mentioned in that particular story, and I only had so much space, so I left them out.
Some people aren't labeled, their names aren't given.
If you haven't read the story/epic/myth you should, it's great.
download for full size.
There's more!!

That's why i made it for myself in the first place haha, the family connections were driving me crazy.
I'm actually studying the middle ages with the hope of teaching one day so i'm just low key thrilled an actual professor thought it was good enough to use in a class~
