When Hjalte is an entity in the Norse tradition attested in the Heimskringla, capturing a diplomatic moment involving Hjalte Skeggjason. The passage records: "When Hjalte, afterwards, came into discourse with the king's daughter Ingegerd, he tells her his conversation with the king" (Heimskringla, 71. Hjalte Skeggjason While He Was in Svithiod). This places Hjalte as an intermediary figure conveying information between the king and his daughter.
