This reminds me of a quote by Jane Smiley, author of "The Greenlanders" (a
novel based on Norse sagas). I don't remember the exact wording but it was
something to the effect that in Norse sagas, a happy ending is where
someone is still alive at the end.

Scripsit Galmr:
>As everyone undoubtedly already knows, the Norse saga is the height of
