Meeting the Locals
After a few hours of waiting for the effects of the mead and wine from previous night's drinking to wear off, Svalin led the others down to the village. Tryggvi had a blanket over him to hide his wings and the other horse walked next to him. A part of Svalin wished her brother were here to deal with the chieftain. A male who understood the customs would make things a lot easier, but seeing how Halbjorn was not here she was going to have to do it.

Svalin was quiet and pensive as they entered the village. Her sword and shield were ready in the event she needed to use them. Which was very likely.

They were immediately surrounded by warriors, all with drawn swords and shields at the ready. Svalin put up a hand for the Avengers to not draw weapons or move. It was a delicate situation and one she didn't need to get quickly out of hand.

"We hath come to speak to thine chieftain," she said as she sized up the warriors all around them.

He's already back on his guard. There's no way she should bne that strong, even as big as she is. He feints a couple times, testing her defenses, then lunges in again.

She was patient. She doesn't fall for the feints, but was ready when the attack came. Her moves so far have been defensive and waited to make an attack.

The blow was caught on her sword and while he was in close, she swept at his legs with a foot.

He hits the ground hard, and quickly finds the tip of her sword pointed at his throat. "Who are you? I've never been challenged by anyone so young, let alone defeated."

"I art Svalin Sifsdottir," she said and removed the point of her sword from his throat. "The Shield of Asgard." She offered him a hand to help him up. "Mine companions art the Avengers. We art here to help thee against the forces of Kang, the leader of these invaders."

His eyes go wide, and he regains his feet only to drop to one knee, commanding the men about to do the same.

"Daughter of Sif, we had no idea. Our loyalty and our lives art thine."

This could not be good and there could be some possible lectures in the future about messing with the past. Not to mention it made her uncomfortable to have people kneeling for her.

She motioned for him to rise. "We art here to fight with thee. Together we canst defeat these invaders and protect thine homes and families. Mine companions and I doth need lodgings for the eve. On the morrow we wilt meet them in battle."

"Then thou shalt have it. The chieftan's hut is thine, m'lady, and we wilt see to thy companions' needs as best we are able. I shalt call a meeting with all the leaders left to us to discuss our strategy tonight, after we have eaten. Your presence shalt surely restore badly needed morale."

"I thank thee, Ulf Torvarsson. Thou'rt a true Norseman and a credit to your line. Thine hospitality ist most generous and mine companions doth look forward to a hot meal and a soft bed. I doth look forward to discussing strategy for the battle ahead."

She picked up her cloak and set it back on her shoulders.

Svalin looked at the Avengers. "They wilt provide food and lodgings for the eve. On the morrow we wilt fight with them."

"I do not require any lodging. I'll head upwards and keep an eye out for Kang while you deliberate. I'll be back this evening to find out the plan."

Svalin nodded. "It would be much appreciated if thou canst see what kind of forces and number we wilt face." Svalin's mind was already working on possible battle scenarios.

“It’s very nice of them to do this for us. You’ll have to explain to me what happened later,” Ryan said taking a look around trying to figure out where it was there were going to.

"They noticed your name, huh?" Vernique asked wryly, judging by all the kneeling that had happened and the fact that said name stuck out of the unknown language. "Yeah, there's going to need to be a lot of planning for this.

"Thanks," Charlie gave the warriors a nod. "I can help with the planning as much as I can."

Eli has watched everything happen so far and is fascinated by all he sees.

"I will aid in any way needed, Svalin. You have but to tell me what I need do." he says.

Svalin nodded. "Aye. They didst," she said to Vernique. It was not sitting well with her. Leading in battle she could easily do, but she didn't like being recognized or deferred to based on her status by birth. She had never been comfortable with it and probably never would be.

She looked at Eli and nodded. "Thank thee, Eli. Mayhap thou wilt accompany thine cousin in scouting?"

“Whatever I can do to help with planning just let me know,” Ryan said though not really sure what he could offer that wasn’t available by someone better at it than him.

Svalin nodded. "There wilt be a meeting later for planning. We wilt need everyone's ideas and thoughts."

She looked at Ulf and nodded for him to lead the way. Tryggvi and the other horse would be fine. Tryggvi would not wander and the other one would stay near another horse.

Vernique will make quite sure to stay very close to the others as she follows.

Eli copies himself once, one to stay with the group, and the other to go and do some reconnaissance from ground-level while Iason scouts from the skies.

Charlie nodded, adjusting his shield as he followed behind the others.
