Victory Celebration
Tomorrow the warriors of the fleet will return to mourning, begin preparations to return home without a lot of their original number and set out longer range patrols to make sure they've dealt with all of the threat. For tonight, however, there's a celebration. There's limited supplies, certainly, but they've done their best. Typical for their traveling fleets, there's boiled meat and fish. There's also plenty of mead.
Entertainment is a combination of a couple of skalds recounting stories from the history of the tribe, and then bragging and stories exchanged around a long table. The heroes are given esteemed places around the table, with Svalin at the head.

	"Aye," she said. "Mine mother only had mine sister and I. She laid her sword aside long enow to produce an heir for Asgard." Svalin still held on to a few insecurities about not being a male when it came to the succession of the throne. "Einmyria ist the one who had multiple pregnancies. We hath three younger siblings making seven total." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Aye," she answered. "It wast part of the marriage arrangements that the issue of Sif and Thor wouldst be the heir to Asgard. Though there wouldst not be talk of favoring one of mine brothers o'er us if mine sister or I wert a male." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Talk by whom? I mean it's not like you're, well, a woman from the... let's call it the sociological perspective, right? You don't do girly things like childrearing and accounting, so it's hard to figure your parents or grandparents thinking the boys would be more appropriate." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"There art some like Lord Odin's advisers who wouldst prefer a male heir," Svalin said. She shrugged. "Is it not the same on Migard with males and wanting sons?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not as strong a preference in America. I mean, some people called it too bad when Grandfather Vernon didn't have a son to whom he could leave his stake in Nevell, but nowadays it's really not much of a thing." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Svalin nodded. "I see. Wilt thou run the company one day or wilt thou leave it to someone else?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'll be in charge when the time comes, delegating where I can. I've gotten a pretty good briefing over the years for how far you can trust certain areas to certain people for how long. But when it comes to the sheer overall financial policy and standards? I can't get enough of that stuff. And since one of Nevell's top commodities is textiles, well..." she grins.

	Svalin nodded. "A good leader doth know when to delegate. I hath no doubt thou will exceed at the task." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Vernique smiles brightly. "Thank you. I appreciate that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thou art most welcome," she said with a warm smile. "Thou shouldst get some rest. We wilt probably leave in the morning." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Good idea," Vernique says, and sashays off. (Reply to this)(Parent)
