He Is The Target!?

The battle commenced at the shoreline, Tyr was not fighting nor was Thorgard.

They had to preserve their strength and knew this was the best way to do that.

Baard was cutting down people left and right, Tyr had a brief flashback about Erik as he was just as destructive but Baard looked to be a lot more tamed than that monster.

"Tyr, why did you engage!?" Thorgard questioned him, this was not the plan.

"Why? Look around you, do they look like they are worried about losing this brat here?" Tyr asked Thorgard.

Thorgard looked around and saw that these men were fighting with the intent to kill.

Thorgard, however, didn't understand what he meant by this, he needed more clarification.

"If they truly valued the hostage, they would retreat instead of fighting back and risk him losing his life," Tyr pointed out.

"This can only mean, my father is in danger," Tyr said but his voice was not one of worry.
