Unn now got ready to go away from the Faroe Isles, and
made it known to her shipmates that she was going to Iceland. She
had with her Olaf "Feilan", the son of Thorstein, and those of his
sisters who were unmarried. After that she put to sea, and, the
weather being favourable, she came with her ship to the south of
Iceland to Pumice-Course (Vikrarskeid). There they had their ship
broken into splinters, but all the men and goods were saved. After
that she went to find Helgi, her brother, followed by twenty men;
and when she came there he went out to meet her, and bade her come
stay with him with ten of her folk. She answered in anger, and said
she had not known that he was such a churl; and she went away,
being minded to find Bjorn, her brother in Broadfirth, and when he
heard she was coming, he went to meet her with many followers, and
greeted her warmly, and invited her and all her followers to stay
with him, for he knew his sister's high-mindedness. She liked that
right well, and thanked him for his lordly behaviour. She stayed
there all the winter, and was entertained in the grandest manner,
for there was no lack of means, and money was not spared. In the
spring she went across Broadfirth, and came to a certain ness,
where they ate their mid-day meal, and since that it has been
called Daymealness, from whence Middlefell-strand stretches
(eastward). Then she steered her ship up Hvammfirth and came to a
certain ness, and stayed there a little while. There Unn lost her
comb, so it was afterwards called Combness. Then she went about all
the Broadfirth-Dales, and took to her lands as wide as she wanted.
After that Unn steered her ship to the head of the bay, and there
her high-seat pillars were washed ashore, and then she deemed it
was easy to know where she was to take up her abode. She had a
house built there: it was afterwards called Hvamm, and she lived
there. The same spring as Unn set up household at Hvamm, Koll
married Thorgerd, daughter of Thorstein the Red. Unn gave, at her
own cost, the bridal-feast, and let Thorgerd have for her dowry all
Salmonriver-Dale; and Koll set up a household there on the south
side of the Salmon-river. Koll was a man of the greatest mettle:
their son was named Hoskuld.
