Odin himself then approaches Ubbe and his brothers to confirm that yes, their father is dead, too. Also portrayed by: Ubbe gives out a smile and leaves. The two older brothers want to make peace with the Saxons. [372][note 43] Although this text is heavily dependent upon Passio sancti Eadmundi for its depiction of Edmund's death, it appears to be the first source to meld the martyrdom with the legend of Ragnarr loðbrók. [313] Although certain versions of the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle also note the capture of a raven banner, named Hræfn ("Raven"), they do not mention any magical attributes, or refer to Loðbrók and his progeny.
