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.

Svalin nodded. "It ist a lot to deal with at once," she said. "Fortunately thou wilst not hath to stay here long." Despite the current situation and the impending battle, Svalin liked it here. It was the closest any setting had come to Asgard. It made her miss home and miss her family.

"The outcome of the battle is uncertain, but I doth believe we wilt prevail."

A pause.

"Thank thee."

	"Yeah. Here's hoping we can move on soon, just leaving these people a bit safer." A pause, then, wryly. "And maybe with a few slightly odder than usual prayers." "You're welcome.' (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Svalin frowned. "I doth not hope they start saying prayers to us. It ist not natural for them to do so and mine sire and grandfather wilt not be pleased." In a moment of pure serendipity a flash of lightning appeared on the horizon followed by a rumble of thunder. "Mine father already disapproves," she said with a small smile on her face.

	Vernique giggled just a little. "Yeah, honoring goddesses who haven't been born yet could get a little problematic, although really, a bit of temporary religious confusion is small potatoes once Kang starts interfering in a timeline, if one can keep it to that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Svalin nodded in agreement. "Aye. Kang ist the bigger problem and one we wilt deal with. I doth not doubt we wilt prevail." Though the cost would be high. Svalin had seen the deathglow around some people. Lives would be lost. She had come out here to get away from people and from seeing portents of their death. "The hour ist late. Thou shouldst rest."

	"Glad we had someone well-versed in this sort of thing with us." Vernique smiles. "Of course, I'm glad you're around for this whole crazy thing in general." "Yeah, I'll get back down in a minute." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	In rare display of strong emotions, Svalin smiled brighly and then hugged Vernique. "I art glad thou art here on this adventure. We wilt have many fine tales to tell to the other when we art done." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Vernique hugs back -- with maybe just an inch taken off her height to make sure she doesn't bruise a rib in the process. "Yeah, we will." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Svalin was careful not to hug Vernique too tightly. She released her and nodded. "Aye." Svalin composed herself and the stern looking shield maiden was back. "May thou have a good rest." (Reply to this)(Parent)
