>>6161040I am still playing Viking Conquest Warband lol I bought a ship just a crap 39 man vessel the Karvi, but I finally made it to Dorestad land of infinite WOOL MONEY I am now cackling maniacally as I sell all the wool lol I have decided selling wool is better than pillaging villages and enslaving all the peasants wool is better than war yay yay the game should be called Viking Conquest Woolband
Anyway, I don't really know any Christmas themed 9th or 10th century Dark Ages music. However if you need some amazing medieval music here is a very catchy plainchant I found, I believe this is the Graduel de Fontevrault (it is some abbey from maybe 1342 ??)
If you have a dnd medieval campaign this music could be used for a pageant or festival or something, this orchestration is very catchy. This is a male voice version, I am not gay but I do think it sounds better than the assorted female versions on youtube.
The female one is more solemn religious church sounding whereas the male one makes it sound like a pagan fertility dance hehe
I don't actually know any latin but even I giggled at the lines VIRGINEM FECUNDAT tee hee hee according to googl translate it is something about the word of god descending on virgins like dew (it is semen) so this is my gift to you, these festive words and music

RES EST ADMIRABILIS Schola Cantorum Riga
(male voice version, with amazing orchestration)
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=81WIeBH-nz0Res est admirabilis, virgo venerabilis parit, sed intacta.
Sine viri coitu plena sancto spiritu genitrix est facta.
Cardine de supero rore salutifero venter fecundatur.
Peperit fecunditas et sacra virginitas integra servatur.
Sicut ros in gramine descendit in virgine verbum summi patris.
Patrem non deseruit et mortalem induit formam alvo matris.
Sicut terram pluvia sic divina gratia virginem fecundat.
Sanctus eam spiritus a peccato penitus abluit et mundat.
Non est opus hominis sed est opus numinis et magne virtutis.
Concipit et generat, que virum non noverat, auctorem salutis.
(this is a female, voices only version I found on youtube, no orchestration. This is a bit more religious church sounding, I prefer the festive male voice one)
