The day concluded and night crept up on the new day just as fast as the sun rose. Tyr did not know what the outside world had in store for him nor did he care but he understood that he needed to conquer this land if he was to stand a chance against the outside world.
He had ventured into the secret eting place he had stumbled upon previously to et Nora's love, she was excited to show Tyr who the man that had her heart and even more excited to tell him that Tyr has given the go-ahead for him to jump ship, and join his clan which he still did not know the na from as it sohow never made it into their conversations.
"I am so excited for you to et him!" Nora said as he guided Tyr to a different location soon after they arrived at the previous one.
It was only logical that they would not et in the sa place twice, to say the least.
"I hope he is as excited to et as you are," Tyr sounded nervous, sothing Nora found cute. It was easy to forget his age, because Nora was older than him by more than five years and the man they were eting was even older.
"I am sure he is… We are there…" Nora said and he was already there, waiting for them but he was not alone, he ca alongside one other man but Nora did not look to be alard by this telling Tyr it was a normal occurrence as he too did not give it much thought.
Before Tyr stood two n, he was clearly more attractive than the other so Tyr assud the handso one was the man that Nora had spoken so highly about because he could see why she liked him. He had golden eyes, crisp black hair that was packed in a ponytail, and stood roughly at 6'1 in his late twenties.
But the man that Nora embraced was the other man, he was a 5 '5 man with quite the face and this is in no way a complint, he had saggy cheeks and looked older than his age implying he was no stranger to alcohol. He had a bald spot and terrible stature, it was hard to believe he was a warrior with such attributes.
"Is this him?" The handso man asked and Tyr was surprised by how casually he was addressing him despite his title as Chieftain; an offense that many do not take lightly.
"Hey, Isak! That is the Chieftain! Show so respect, brother!" The shorter man imdiately put his brother in check and Tyr now understood why Nora was with the other brother, he was the one with the etiquette.
"I apologize for my brother's rudeness, Chieftain! I go by the na Noa. I am honored to be before the man that killed Skol." Noa bowed his head to show his respect to his brother awkwardly following suit but Tyr maintained his silence and Nora beca nervous.
Isak was always like this, and Nora did not know how Tyr would take it.
"Hahaha! Isak, I can see why Nora did not fall for you, your brother is the catch…" Tyr blurted out but another silence filled the air.
"Um… Chieftain…" Nora said, walking towards Isak who smiled sheepishly.
"They are both my lovers," Nora's face creased into an awkward smile and Tyr's Jaw dropped.
"O-One man cannot satisfy you!?" Tyr exclaid and this eliminated the earlier tension because Tyr had just displayed that he was just a boy in this departnt.
"Um… Chieftain. I see both of them as one. They both complete each other. What one lacks, the other has. I love them both equally," Nora said and both brothers smiled.
"Did you co alone?" Tyr questioned out of the blue, this was random because it had no relevance to the current discussion.
Both brothers looked around confused, before returning their gaze to Tyr.
"We ca alone, did you see sothing?" Noa asked but Tyr remained quiet, looking past them like he saw sothing that none of them saw.
"Ah, it is nothing…." Tyr muttered and they continued with their discussion long into the night.
Tyr enjoyed the conversation they were having, their stories seed so ordinary.
It was refreshing from the war stories or stories that involved violence as this was one of love and coincidence. Nora told them about how Tyr beat a man to death for trying to take her honor and the epic battle between Tyr and how he bested Kolbeinn in the duel.
How enemies beco lovers and before anyone knew it, both brothers dropped their guard.
They were not the only ones as Tyr did the sa, Nora held back her tears because this was everything she had hoped for.
But they had to go back, they could not stay for too long, Tyr intentionally avoided asking any questions directly about their clan or they might grow wary of him and he wanted Nora to have the happy ending she craved. Tyr wanted to do this one thing for her.
He could not protect his mother, so he was going to do right by her by protecting Nora.
It was ti to say goodbye and Isak showed Tyr the respect that ca with his title as both n were on their way.
Nora asked Tyr who he liked more between both n and Tyr simply looked at Nora.
She could tell he was glad he t them but what ca out of his mouth surprised even her.
"I like them… both," Tyr teased with a wink, a reference to Nora's polygamous relationship with the brothers and a joke she imdiately caught up on.
"Hahaha! You are an!" Nora fired back but she quickly covered her mouth because she had montarily addressed him without the necessary title.
"I am sorry Chieftain!" Nora quickly apologized but Tyr only laughed at this reaction.
"You can call Tyr…"
