The Karlskrona Find

A large black Viking box is unearthed after being found by ground radar. It is of unknown date and is a one-piece rock with a lid. The box has writings in it. The language is so ancient it is not readable. The picture in it cannot be true because it is counter to all the scientific knowledge of the Vikings.
The finding and opening of the box causes a racial stir in several female investigators.
Before the black box was buried eons ago, Herman the Bold returns from a raid to find his son had been killed with other nephews by drunken warriors at a Fjord given them. The Bold is ready to sack every town and village controlled by their leader, the Weasel. A Viking trial by blood is proposed for those involved. But his representative is killed.
The Bold visits the Oracle and his youngest daughter is given the Word. She is the Kvenlegur Vordur. Blood flows as water whenever the Vordur is summoned. The Weasel's entire family tree become known to the Vordur. Death her-self screams with the Vordur, brave men tremble, and women shutter at their cry.
The Telnco family in the 1600s are extremely poor smuggles in Sicily. The Mahnco is the most powerful family on the island. They salvage a ship killing all they find. They barely leave enough for the Telncos to live on. The survivors ask the Telncos only for rope for a sail to leave. Years later a Vordur lands on the shore and soon the Telnco family is the most powerful in all the land.
NY city in the 1960s has 4 groups meeting in hope of claiming more territory and extending their power, the first is the Telnco family from Sicily and the largest crime family in the east. A family council runs them as a business to make money. The Chinese Tong is run by old men, who respect their ancestors. The Black Brothers needs more territory but sees the benefits of a controlling council. The Puerto Ricans are like a rat in a dog kennel. They steal what no one else wants but they want more.
The 5th group is the NYPD, police. They do not want a gang war when the Patriarch of the Telnco family dies. The GGGFather rules their council.
The Telnco's GGGSons have without family council approval started to move into unclaimed territory around the docks of NY City. They maybe kissed by GGGFather for their unauthorized actions!
Their GGGFather has a key around his neck which opens a cabinet they still have when the left Sicily. In it is a small black box.
The Patriarch knows the Vordur has been summoned. Can he save the entire at family at home and overseas? Who is to be feared the most, the warriors and their swords or the smaller dressed warriors with their Helberds?
