302-330

"The Sorrow of Odin the Goth."

Although 300-302 covers only two years, it also informs us that Carl's intervention gains ten years of peace for his Goths. However, Jorith dies bearing Carl's son, Dagobert, after only one year. The following three narrative sections are headed:

2319
302-330
1980

Carl confers with a Time Patrol doctor on the Moon in 2319 and with Everard in New York in 1980. In the 302-330 period:

Dagobert's grandparents, Winnithar and Salvalindis, raise him;
the Wanderer visits occasionally;
Dagobert's son, Tharasmund, and King Geberic's son, Ermanaric, are born;
Dagobert becomes leader of the Teurings and leads them south.

So far, the history of Gothic migrations is on track. Readers know that the Teurings will have a showdown with Ermanaric.
