CCCXIX. Long-term Doubts

Dag smiled, trying to find the best words to explain his motives and knowing that the real reason for that question was the disappointment he had caused his woman, who was sure that they would move to Skjegg together once they turned 18.

"Initially, I was absolutely convinced that I wanted to be part of your current Clan, believe me, that's it. But on the day of my pledge, something incredibly strange happened, and if I remember, when I told you about it, you didn't believe my words" he began. 

"Yes, I vaguely remember the story of the rabbit... I was very disappointed and angry with you, I was afraid of losing you forever because of your stupidity. Did you know that I dreamed of joining the Crows Of Odin since I was a child, to retrace my father's steps and despite this, you did your own thing, as usual!" she exclaimed, continuing to rebuke him for that gesture even years later.
