The Son Of Ragnar



TYR IS GETTING MARRIED!?" Bjorn exclaimed as his mother broke down the news to him. 

He was in utter disbelief, how could Tyr be getting married before he and Bjorn realized he did not even have a love life, to begin with? 

The story that Tyr told him about having his first kiss suddenly made sense. 

Lagertha was proud that Tyr had risen from what many said was his doom back to glory. 

He survived the wilderness and came back into their world to marry the princess of a formidable Kingdom. 

"He is truly my rival. He has outclassed me here but I will not be defeated!" Bjorn ran out of the house, darting his head left and right like he was looking for any random girl and he found one in the corner of his eyes. 

Bjorn dashed in her direction like a lunatic and this startled the poor girl, she immediately put up her guard for what she perceived to be an attack. 

Born was out of breath as he said. 

"Marry me!" 

The girl was both shocked and disgusted by the audacity of this young warrior. 

She could not believe what she heard as this was no girl, it was a woman in her mid-late twenties.

She was already married and it took everything in her not to slap Bjorn across the face.

She walked away prompting Lagerha to confront her son. 

He was so hopeless when it came to women, this was not a duel where you challenge an individual and they give you a response on the spot. 

"You have a lot to learn…" Lagertha blurted out with a sigh. 

"You will teach me, right mother!?" Bjorn asked, his hopeful gaze settled on Lagertha. 

Lagertha knew even she might not be able to save him because Bjorn saw things in black and white. 

His lack of interaction with women in the romance aspect was sure to come back to bite him in the ass now. 

She was partly surprised that Rugalf held out for Tyr to marry his daughter as it has been four years but this told her that he had made his decision long before then. 

Lagerha was proud of Tyr, she never stopped loving him and after so long, she would finally get to see her son. It was ironic that Ragnar was worried she would not accept him as her own yet Lagertha was the one that loved Tyr the most.

"Mother?" Bjorn called out as tears of joy streamed down Lagertha's cheeks.

She did not even know when she started crying nor could she stop it.

"You boys sure have grown up…" Lagertha said amidst the tears and this brought a smile from Bjorn. 

"Let us get ready, Mother…" Bjorn said with a hand on his mother's shoulder. 

"Let us go see a Ragnarsson get married!" Bjorn reiterated; he was full of energy.

He wanted nothing but the best from Tyr but with an invitation sent to Kattegat, this also meant that King Askild was expected to attend.

Bjorn was worried, he was worried that Tyr might take killing him into his own hands but Askild could not die, not yet. 

The pieces were not in place for his death would certainly spell the end of Kattegat.

Kattegat was their home after all, it needed to be protected at all costs but these were frivolous thoughts.

All that mattered right now was Tyr's wedding which was expected to be held the next day. 

-

The news of Tyr's wedding spread across Kingdoms, and everyone wondered what kind of man he must be for King Rugalf to favour him as he did or why Estrid picked him to wed. 

Rugalf invited a lot of people, this included people that had shown interest in his daughter but he knew that these men would try their hardest to dissuade Estrid from marrying Tyr. 

You could think of this as their last stand, but it was not only allies that this news reached but enemies as well.

Tyr Ragnarsson's marriage will tie Vestfold and Kattegat, binding them by "blood" and thus their alliance will be a lot stronger than one signed on paper. 

King Ragnar expected this but he could not believe it was happening so fast.

Tyr was only back for a few days and he managed to woo Estrid in that short amount of time?

Ragnar respected that Rugalf gave his daughter the free will to choose and she was so close to choosing another but Rugalf pleaded with her that she wait for Tyr to return and she did just that and this paid off spectacularly. 

Ragnar was fighting his own temptations back in Vestfold, his heart belonged to Lagerha but his body craved Aslaug. Lust was common, discipline was not. 

He knew that leaving Vestfold would help him survive this temptation and even more, he wanted to see Tyr get married because he was a Ragnarsson.

Ragnar was worried about the prophecy, it was always in the back of his mind but he knew the more roots Tyr put down, the more likely he was going to stay on their side. Ragnar also knew he had a role to play in all of this but he did not know what.

The gods placed the fate of Tyr on his end and Ragnar has had thoughts of killing his son or if he would even be able to should the time come for it. 

He quickly pushed such depressing thoughts out of his head because he had a wedding to prepare for. 

The wedding of his son, and as usual, he left Skarde in charge of Vestfold in his absence but Ragnar knew about the threat that lurked in the shadows.

He had no intentions of taking more than ten men with him to Rogaland as he knew no one would be foolish enough to test him and if an attempt was made on his life, he was more than equipped to handle said threat.

"To Rogaland!" Ragnar exclaimed.
