Thanks, Edoardo. I have seen this before and I don't think it is the one. It was, as I recall, about a man who came back from the Thing and told his people that henceforth Christianity would be the religion of Iceland. Without a word, the goꝺi of Frey leapt on a stallion and everyone cried, "He's going to destroy the temple." This seems like an extraordinary bit of mind-reading (after all, he could be setting off in a rage because of the announcement) until it's revealed the priests can only ride mares, and therefore the fact he's chosen a stallion indicates he will adhere to the new law.
Thank you, Anne. That's a bit more detail there. I'll do some more digging and see if I can find anything that matches.
