Vestfold's Next Move...

When there is a deadline, time always feels like it went faster than usual and this was the case regarding this situation.

"King Asmund, we have lined up the bodies to burn!" A warrior said but Asmund wanted all their families to be present before the burning commenced.

"We will wait, I owe them this much. They gave up their sons, brothers, and fathers for us." Asmund muttered. He was seated on the throne, with the lamps lighting up the place.

Kjell walked in to approach Asmund because he had about enough, he trusted his judgment but he was growing to doubt it.

"What brings you here, Earl Kjell?" Asmund was quick to ask because he wanted time to himself to weigh his decision.

"King Asmund, I came here because you promised me fame and glory but can glory be gotten if the war is lost? Signy is important for the future of Vestfold, we cannot let him die nor can we let you die," Kjell was upfront with his worries, something that Asmund appreciated.
