An interesting question, and perhaps one to bring up to Mr. Sinclair when you're having your pint with him - he does seem to do his homework, and have an awareness of the local history and landscape. It might give him another avenue of approach to the mystery. If not an actual viking spirit of a deceased warrior, maybe a local with roots back to that particular occupation of York, and an ancient viking warrior in his or her family tree, the malady handed down through the generations...

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
