The first part of the story of Bard, a medieval Icelandic dad who goes full Batman.
The creature is Stallo. It’s made of turf and magic, but it takes half your remaining life as soon as it’s born, so it’s kind of like a real human child in that way.

Disclaimer
Teen girls meet older men and they develop a physical relationship that, while it doesn’t violate even modern day age of consent laws in Iceland, feels uncomfortable if only for the power differential. Additionally, since these are the sagas there are stabbings and beatings and such. Nothing terribly graphic but it exists
