Skeld, Halga, Roneth… and Rethel will be joining them.
Yrsa herself was tragically also the result of Halga raping a woman.
The Skjöldunga saga relates that Helgo(Halga) was the king of Denmark together with his brother Roas Hroðgar.
Ingeld or Froda murdered Healfdene, but was himself killed in revenge by Hrothgar and Halga.
Fyrisvellir In the Anglo-Saxon epic Beowulf, Halga is hardly mentioned.
Froda killed his brother and tried to get rid of his nephews Harald(corresponds to Hrothgar) andHaldanus corresponds to Halga.
In Hrólfr Kraki's saga, she was first captured by Halga who had Hroðulf with him.
Hroðgar is given three siblings, brothers Heorogar and Halga and an unnamed sister, all the children of Healfdene and belonging to the royal clan known as the Scyldings.
Like the Chronicon Lethrense and the Annales Lundenses, it presents Hroðulf(Roluo) as the son of Halga and his own daughter.
The Gesta Danorum(book 2), by Saxo Grammaticus,tells that Helgo(Halga) repelled a Swedish invasion, killed the Swedish king Hothbrodd, and made the Swedes pay tribute.
The second time it tells of Froda and Ingeld is in Book 7, buthere Hrothgar is replaced by a Harald and Halga by a Haldanus.
In Icelandic sources, Hrothgar, Halga and Hroðulf appear under the Old Icelandic forms of their names; that is, as Hróarr, Helgi and Hrólfr, the last one with the epithet Kraki.
His father Healfdene appears as Haldan or Haldanus,while his brother Halga appears as Helghe or Helgo.
Some years later, the Danish king Helgo(Halga) attacked Sweden and captured Yrsa, not knowing that she was his own daughter, the result of Helgo raping Olava, the queen of the Saxons.
What is unique to the Icelandic versions are the adventures of Hrothgar and Halga before one of the two brothers could become king.
According to Widsith(see below), Hrothgar and Hroðulf defeat Ingeld, and if Scandinavian tradition(see the more detailed discussion below) is to be trusted Hrothgar himself is killed by a relative, or by the king of Sweden, buthe is avenged by his younger brother Halga.
The Gesta Danorum also agrees with Beowulf in presenting Hrothgar(Ro) and Halga(Helgo) as brothers and the sons of Healfdene Haldanus.
Among these sources, it is the most famous one, the Hrólfr Kraki's saga, which is most different from Beowulf, anda notable difference is that Hrothgar leaves the rule of Denmark to his younger brother Halga and moves to Northumbria.
Whereas Hróarr moved to Northumbria and married the king's daughter,Helgi(i.e. Halga) went to the Saxons wanting to woo their warlike queen Oluf.
Hroðgar 7 halga til 62 hyrde ic þ elan cwen 63 heaðo-Scilfingas healsgebedda This appears in Gummere's translation as: 59 Then, one after one, there woke to him, 60 to the chieftain of clansmen, children four: 61 Heorogar, then Hrothgar, then Halga brave; 62 and I heard that- ela's queen, 63 the Heathoscylfing's helpmate dear.
The Chronicon Lethrense and the Annales Lundenses agree with Beowulf in presenting Hrothgar(Ro) and his brother Halga(Helghe) as the sons of Healfdene Haldan.
Whereas the Chronicon Lethrense and the Annales Lundenses do not explain why Halga needed to kill Hodbrod to win all of Denmark, the Gesta Danorum presents Hothbrodd as a king of Sweden, who invaded Denmark and killed Ro.
This account differs from Hrólf Kraki's saga in the respect that Yrsa was first peacefully married to Eadgils, andlater captured by Halga, who raped her and made her pregnant with Hroðulf.
The common piece of information that Hrothgar's younger brother Halga is Hroðulf's father comes from Scandinavian sources(see below), where Halga was unaware that Yrsa was his own daughter and either raped or seduced her.
A similar piece of information is also found in the Chronicon Lethrense and the Annales Lundenses, where Halga had to kill a man named Hodbrod to win all of Denmark.
In Hrólfr Kraki's saga, Helgi dies when more or less trying to save her from Eagdils,while the Skjöldunga saga presents her marriage with Eadgils as a happier one, and Halga died in a different war expedition.
The Chronicon Lethrense(and the included Annales Lundenses)tell that when the Danish kings Helghe(Halga) and Ro(Hroðgar) were dead, the Swedish king Hakon/Athisl forced the Daner to accept a dog as king.
The Book 2 of the Gesta Danorum by Saxo Grammaticus contains roughly the same information as the Chronicon Lethrense and the Annales Lundenses, i.e. that Ro(Hroðgar)and Helgo(Halga) were the son of Haldanus Healfdene.
The Skjöldunga saga tells that a Valdar disputed that Rörek,the cousin of Helgi(Halga) succeeded Hrólfr Kraki(Hroðulf) as the king of the Daner.
With the exception of Hversu Noregr byggdist, where he is only a name in a list, three elements are common to all of the accounts: he was the son of a Danish king Healfdene,the brother of Halga, and he was the uncle of Hroðulf.
