Grutsaga

"'Þes bokk, som haf eg, Koneg Erik der Þresþ, geskrifaþ on gemakkaþ, mun far al urska folk saga des uns land vasan. Het mun faryje lifan, som unk kve muna lifan.'""'This book, that I, Koneg Erik the Third, have written and made, will be for all Ursk people, a story of our land. It will live forever, as we will.'"The Grutsaga is a collection of Ursk stories compiled by Koneg Erik III during his reign as the Koneg of Urskaland from 1300-1356CE.

The book is synonymous with Ursk culture and Ursk history, and is taught to and read by children from a very young age. Since Ursk has not changed much over the past 700 years, it is still completely intelligible to readers of Ursk, except for a lack of substitution of some ancient Ursk words which have been replaced by borrowings.
