Devil's Temptation

Bjorn finished his discussion with Lars and he left his room feeling a lot more disappointed than he felt before going in. 

Magnus was eager to find out what they discussed but Bjorn was in no mood to. 

There was no way this person before him could become a warrior, even if the gods intervened.

But Bjorn knew just how important this was because if he played his cards right then Magnus could prove to be a powerful ally in his attempts to kill Askild. 

Bjorn was still not certain how he would do it because he knew he could not defeat Askild in a direct confrontation and Askild was a very paranoid person.

No one was let near him, even his food tasted first before he ate it. 

Bjorn informed Magnus of his father's proposal and Magnus looked elated, Bjorn thought he would take offence that his father saw him as incompetent but he must be more self-aware than Bjorn gave him credit for.
