Salgard was called on by Rugalf, Rugalf knew the kind of man his younger brother was and it was his duty to keep him in place.
He did not want him to extend his sadism to Tyr or things might get ugly, he already laid his hand on the son of Ragnar after he sensed his killing intent towards his daughter and that was the last act of aggression he wanted the younger Viking to face.
The expedition was in two weeks and Rugalf wanted everyone on good terms before then even though they were only sending a very small percentage of their forces.
It would barely make a dent in their overall army, as Kattegat and his Kingdom were the only three going there. Each planned to allocate fifty men to this expedition as this should be more than enough.
"My King…" Salgard greeted his older brother with his head bowed.
"Salgard, we have a guest of the utmost importance. You understand the importance this holds for our Kingdom, don't you?" Rugalf asked.
