Around -8 IC his lands were invaded by the Norsii and his coastal capital besieged [1a] and it was only when Sigmar came with Krugar of the Taleutens and Aloysis of the Cherusen that the siege would broken. Wolfila quickly joined their army with his own clansmen and together they crushed the invaders. [1b]
They drove the Norse back into the bay where their ships were beached and then bombarded them with catapults and fire arrows as they sought to escape and most were destroyed, their crews slaughtered. Wolfila gave Sigmar his sword-oath in gratitude. [1b]
