Sighvatur had given Skaði an ultimatum, and that was to kill Kolbeinn.
Skaði walked past Sighvatur, standing in front of him.
She was trembling and Kolbeinn knew something was up, Sighvatur had said something to her but if she was an enemy, Kolbeinn had no problems cutting her down.
"I am sorry Kolbeinn…" Skaði said and Sighvatur smiled in satisfaction because he knew that Skaði was about to attack him, her body language gave her off.
She suddenly turned but Sighvatur caught it by the side before yanking it towards to send Skaði flying in his direction as she had wrapped the chains she usually attaches to it around her forearm.
Sighvatur caught her by the face airborne, his big hand covering her entire face as he smashed her into the floor.
Sighvatur's strength was so immense that despite the snow meant to act as a cushion, Skaði's head was crushed into a pulp, caving in from the pressure.
Sighvatur did not look remorseful as he began the casual walk toward Kolbeinn.
Kolbeinn knew he meant business and he could not let his guard down at all.
Sighvatur charged at him, the spring in his steps made it feel like he was gliding.
Kolbeinn swung his sword but Sighvatur's fist made contact with his ribs before his blade could reach, fracturing a few of said ribs.
Kolbeinn instinctively grabbed his ribs but this made him even more vulnerable to other attacks.
Sighvatur grabbed him by the neck and flung him with such force that it broke through the wooden fence they had set up for the arena.
Sighvatur did not like that Kolbeinn was weakened because he wanted to beat him at his best but he did not have that luxury.
Kolbeinn was coughing up blood, he had incurred massive internal damages and he could barely stay awake.
"W-What is this power!?" Kolbeinn was surprised by his strength but the longer they fought, the more time he bought for Tyr
Sighvatur casually walked up to him, Kolbeinn knew death was coming but at least he died like a warrior.
"I do not fear death…" Kolbeinn said but this was something Sighvatur knew because no one that feared death would be stupid enough to challenge him.
"Why do you fight so hard to protect him?" Sighvatur asked Kolbeinn, he was curious to know the source of his loyalty.
"H-He is the future…" Kolbeinn responded; he could not stand up even if he wanted to. His body had reached its limit.
"The future? Even after he killed Gissur?" Sighvatur asked but he got no response from Kolbeinn.
"I see, he did not tell you…" Sighvatur said, sitting beside Kolbeinn as he knew the man could not move any part of his body at the moment.
"You must have found it strange that Tyr was the one that came out of that alive with minor injuries…" Sighvatur owed Kolbeinn because despite how this turned out, he did love his sister, and if he could avoid killing Kolbeinn, he would take it but Kolbeinn would have to submit.
The Sturlungar warrior that Tyr had acquired began to whisper among themselves.
"I have a witness, you see…" Sighvatur said and Kolbeinn's interest piqued. This was all Sighvatur needed, all he needed was for him to give him a listening ear, and in Kolbeinn's current state, he had no choice.
"Who is this witness?" Kolbeinn asked and out came a familiar face, out came Noa.
"I witnessed the whole thing…." Noa came forth out of nowhere and Thai granted credibility because he was a Viking under that clan.
Noa narrated the story, exactly as Tyr had confessed but in thir-third person, Noa was not there so all this was a lie but considering he was someone that Gissur wanted enough to send the Mad Hound, he held a certain standing in the clan hence why these words were a lot more believable coming from his mouth.
Noa had stood at the entrance when Tyr was confessing, but he had already made the switch long before.
This could explain his absence throughout the war, he was nowhere to be seen as well as why Sighvatur seemed to be one step ahead at all times.
Noa had divulged their strategies to him and the fact that it was exactly as he said only made Sighvatur all the more willing to accept him.
It had nothing to do with Sighvatur's intellect but everything to do with Noa's betrayal but could one truly call it betrayal?
Gissur was no longer his Chieftain but he was still a man that Tyr was allied with and he began to question a lot of other events, such as how Tyr forced Isak to make that choice that would force one of the brothers to die.
But one could argue that both brothers would have lived if neither took the weapon that Tyr had presented to them.
Kolbeinn's face went blue, he could not believe what he was hearing but the sad thing was, part of him had suspected it.
"That is not all, Kolbeinn…" Sighvatur looked excited as he said this and he gestured for Noa to speak up.
"I was the one that tried to kill your daughter on Tyr's order, this was the only way I could make it into his clan, this was the only way I could be with her. Tyr saved her from his planned assassination attempt so he could save her and gain your trust and he ordered my brother to plant a weapon closer to the Sturlungar clan which was found. They suspected you lot abducted us so they sent the Mad Hound to find out what had happened…" Noa spilled the beans from the very genesis and Kolbeinn recollected a vital piece of information on how Tyr was able to calm the Mad Hound down during the attack.
He thought Tyr just had his way with words, he did but it made a whole lot more sense right now.
"Tyr has played us all, I am afraid." S
ighvatur was not ashamed to admit it.
