Chapter 00 - prologue
It was a stormy night, the ship swinging from left to right and back. The men on deck doing everything in their power to continue on safely.
Their leader was under decks muttering encouraging words in Finish while her friend continued whining, both females unaccustomed to the circumstances they where in. The older girl, just turned 16, told her companion to stay down, while she was going upstairs to her men. Once upstairs she saw her men doing their best to sail to an isle a few miles north-west. Shouting out orders which were barely understandable over the wind she told the ship's warriors to keep their course, and secure everything that was still on deck, including themselves. Her reddish-brown hair whipped out of it's restraint, blocking her sight even further than the rain was already doing.
While the wind was forming tears in the crew's eyes the girl kept staring ahead of herself to the isle. The last isle where they could be. Praying to the Gods that this hell wouldn't be for nothing, she watched as the ship sailed further. A loud crack could be heard above their heads, a small smile played on the leaders lips. Because Thor would lead her to one of his sons, just as he had led his daughter to her. She watched as the sails and flag were lit by the lightning, the white sails a powerful contrast to the blue and black flag above it. No, she and her people wouldn't back down before they found the two males: one had long since left their home and the other new to their ways.
A short high-pitched scream caught her attention and made her go downstairs where she curled up with the one girl she ever thought of as 'sister', as they dozed of with the sounds of rain, thunder and lightning, all droned out by the sound of a hummed lullaby, shared between the two sisters as the men entered the isle's dock in the middle of this stormy night.
