King Jonakr Marrying Gudrun After She Attempts to Drown Herself
Following the horrific destruction of the Hunnish court and the deaths of her children and husband Atli, Gudrun attempts to commit suicide by leaping into the sea. Instead of drowning, the waves carry her across the water to the kingdom of King Jonakr in Zeeland. Jonakr takes her in and marries her, leading to the birth of three sons and a final, tragic chapter in the cycle of the Völsungs.
