Björn had not been looking forward to returning to Kattegat, but he had heard the rumors. He had heard that Ivar was planning on attacking..his own family. His mother may not be Ivar’s family, but Ubbe was, and as much as he had loved the Mediterranean, beyond that whole situation with eating that man and nearly getting killed, he had to go back. Being back was strange. He’d expected and was pleased at the fanfare of his return, but still. He and Torvi had talked, and he couldn’t be with her any longer. He didn’t love her anymore, and it wasn’t fair to her. He knew it. They both did.
Feeling a bit stifled by all of the chaos inside, he stepped outside. Even if Kattegat didn’t feel like home anymore, he still enjoyed the night sky. It was different here, than in the East. Spotting someone, he gave them another look, before realizing it was Astrid.
Walking closer to here, he leaned on the closest building. “I noticed you weren’t inside..don’t you want to welcome the great Björn Ironside back from his journeys, like everyone else, hm?”
