In one sense, wolves exist "outside of society," says Brownworth, noting that the word for "exile" in Old Norse, vargr, is the same word used for "wolf." Being exiled in Viking society meant living like a wolf in the forest, an enemy to mankind. As Stefan Brink writes in The Viking World, being exiled was "the worst punishment" for Vikings. In a society in which family and social ties were everything, it was akin to a social death—and could often lead to literal death, too, since exiles could be killed with impunity.
