It registers within his mind, like a fleeting cry of warning, this isn’t the right time, he’s not in the right state of mind. But he stands here already, feeling the beginnings of frozen earth under his booted feet. And he takes steps, small and swaying ones, to his thick wooden door which he probably made himself.
Because this was the Swedes home and he once made sure that anything danish should not be welcomed here.
The problem with that was though, Mads wanted. And isn’t that weird? He’s drunk out of his mind, but he wants to see him to... to what? To complain? To weep?
It doesn’t help that he’s not sure of himself, yet when was he ever? In his whirling mind it made sense. So he knocked. Once. Twice. Thrice.
Mind amiss, but heart heavy. A disaster in the making, for sure.
