Guðrún Ósvífrsdóttir

She is the main protagonist of the Medieval Icelandic Laxdœla saga, which recounts the history of the People of Laxárdalur.

There exists a thermal bath called Guðrúnarlaug reportedly at the site where the dreams were interpreted by Gestur Oddleifsson.

They grew up at Helgafell, after his mother Guðrún exchanged homes with chieftain Snorre Torgrimsson (Snorri Goði).

Guðrún constantly argued for revenge for the killing of her former husband Bolli Þorleiksson, but eventually her two sons made peace with the sons of Óláfr, Kjartan's kinsmen, at the Thorness Thing; it is not known how much money was exchanged in compensation as part of the agreement, but "both sides were thought to have gained in esteem from these affairs".

Her father, Ósvífr Helgason died soon after the marriage, and he was buried at a church Guðrún constructed.

One night Herdis had a dream that led them to a discovery of a prophetess buried beneath Guðrún's prayer spot.

She gave the cryptic response "To him I was worst whom I loved best,"[11] which answer, though accepted by her son, has sparked great debate among scholars as to whom she was referring.
