Kolbeinn and Gissur had an understanding, the day had progressed since both men made contact with each other. They did not cross blades but still recognized each other as enemies.

Gissur was nostalgic and had welcomed Kolbeinn into his home to have a drink but he was still an enemy.

This truce would only last for a few hours as Kolbeinn had triggered the soft spot he had for family.

Everyone rested but they were still on extremely high alert as Gissur could easily change his mind and declare them enemies on a whim.

But they would soon have more important things to worry about and that came in the form of Gō.

Gō was injured and looked like he was barely clinging to his life, he was and the only thing keeping him moving was his will for his body would otherwise collapse under the wound he had acquired.

"C-Chieftain! They have broken through our second line! Sighvatur! Sighvatur has joined the battle!" Gō shouted, he did not know if his body would last any longer hence why he reported without any hesitation.

He did not even take the visitors he had into consideration because this was of utmost importance.

"What do you mean Sighvatur has joined the battle? The reports said Sturla, and that was why Njal went to curb their forces so what is this?" Gissur was finding it hard to believe what he was hearing because he knew that if this was the case then Njal's life would be in danger.

"It is true! They surrounded us! We tried to fight back and report to you but that was when we encountered Sighvatur. We were swiftly defeated!" Gō was ready to divulge as much information as he could before he lost consciousness.

Gissur could not believe what he heard but what he hated more was that this man left his brother to his devices and ran.

Gō would soon succumb to his injuries and lose consciousness, this single act saved him from Gissur's wrath as he was ready to pounce on the man and beat him like he did Tyr.

He was a valuable source of information and this granted him a chance at life as he was rushed to the center where Tyr was.

Gissur now had more important things than Kolbeinn to deal with, but Kolbeinn sensed this might be a chance to crush Sighvatur.

If they joined forces, that is because Sighvatur did not have this much power when his brother was still alive. After all, he knew the threat they posed if they fought together.

The rift between them is what gave Sighvatur that push he needed to become stronger, this and the skills Ymir granted his son.



Gudrun was called by Nora, and she rushed to her side because she had noticed that Nora was not there with them a few minutes earlier.

She snuck in that direction as Kolbeinn began his pitch and reason as to why they should join armies to face Sighvatur.

-

"What is it, Nora?" Gudrun asked her but Nora was not verbal, all she did was tilt her head in the direction of the building where Noa stood despite his injuries.

"Tyr is in there, I thought you would want to see him but I have to warn you…." Nora paused, her face saddening.

"It is fine, I am ready," Gudrun reassured her as she walked into the building where Tyr rested.

What she saw brought tears to her eyes, Tyr did not look like….Tyr.

His entire face was swollen, and she hoped that this did not cause any brain damage as she had seen men never wake up from such an injury.

She hoped that he was truly favored by the gods, or this might be the end of his journey.

She did not realize when tears started streaming down her face and dripping onto Tyr's wounded face.

After sorrow came anger, but she had heard stories about Gissur, it was more surprising that he left Tyr alive than it was that he beat him to a pulp.

But she wondered what he was talking about regarding a prophecy, what was his wife's reaction to hearing he beat Tyr?

Something was going on but she knew there was no way for her to find out or at least that is what she initially thought. She saw that one of these men was helping Nora for some reason.

"Hey…" Gudrun called out to Noa but Nora entered the house the moment she noticed this to see what was going on.

Gudrun asked what was wrong with Gissur's wife as well as what this prophecy was but unfortunately for her, Noa only held the answer to one of these questions. He explained the gift that Gissur's wife had.

They doubted it but entertained the idea because whatever the reason, that was what kept Gissur from killing Tyr.

But everyone was greeted with an overwhelming stench, it was a mix of urine and shit.

They looked in the direction in which it originated from and behold, it was Gissur's wife.

It took everything in them not to throw up, but they also knew they could not leave Tyr with her because she is mentally unstable.

Noa lowered his head, she was the wife of Gissur and deserved the respect that came with that title.

Nora and Gudrun followed suit as they were visitors but the woman did not even recognize their presence.

"That boy…" She muttered, walking beside the Tyr.

The closer she got, the worse the smell got.





Nora was worried about what she wanted to do and if she had any intentions of harming him.

She would not hesitate to put her down, Gudrun shared this same sentiment.

But all she did was lick Tyr's blood, this was something she had never done except for her husband.

For she could see the fate of anyone whose blood she ingested.

Nora and Gudrun had a grossed-out expression because they knew this woman was far from hygienic and her licking Tyr's wound could very well infect it.

But Noa's warning gaze told them that they had no choice but to look.

The last thing they needed was that madman outside to come here and beat them to a pulp too.

But all that happened after she took the blood was her having a seizure, she dropped to the ground and began shaking uncontrollably.

Noa wanted to call for help but even in this state, she was conscious enough to tell him,

"No." The seizure soon stopped and she looked terrified by what she had seen.

"What a wonderful future fate has in store for you! You cannot die! You must not die! A boy lost to his past! That past will take everything from you!" The woman said, pausing as she looked around.

"No… it will take everyone from you!" She warned but it was like she was in a trance. She had seen a future that supersedes the glories she once saw her husband achieving but Gissur touched Tyr before he needed to drastically change the future she had seen for her husband.

Gissur had lost a great future due to his impulsive nature.
