Annotation
In this chapter Miller examines the different ways in which characters depart from the saga, with an emphasis on Hallgerðr and Mörðr. Mörðr departs from the saga with dignity, the author not concerned with issues of salvation or damnation. Hallgerðr gets her revenge on Gunnarr and thus must suffer Rannveig‘s damning words, and be forgotten by the author. The author, Miller argues, is concerned in balancing the scales, not necessarily with every character paying their moral debt.
