The Sage of Einar

After about two months of travel, Malene looked at the Danish coast with joy, so when her ships arrived, she descended.

Because she wanted to inform everyone about the new treaty that had been formed just as she wanted to arm her warriors and guards with the new weapons and armors.

When she entered her palace, she was able to see her beloved lover Sigurd Ring.

"I'm glad to see that you are in good condition Sigurd, but I want you to help me gather all the representatives as we have to talk about the next course of action we have to take.

But you were right when you told me that Nordic nation would be a good ally against the damned Christians. I could see with my eyes that the guardians of the Nordic world have the right to say to themselves.

You know when I could go see with my own eyes the power of Nordic fire, a fire that can burn in water not to mention that they have a strange crossbow which can fire multiple projectiles.

But what surprised me the most is the organization of what he calls soldiers, a completely different organization from the one we warriors have.

While we seek that our warriors can kill as many enemies as they can, he seeks that the soldiers can work as a team to defeat entire armies.

Undoubtedly, the boat trip served to open my horizons. It may not be a perfect queen, however it showed me many things that I can improve, especially such as better control of the population.

I think that from everything I learned that is the most important because I realized that as long as the population remains relatively happy, the population will be able to work for you as long as you want without feeling pressured.

But now prepare everything that the meeting must be prepared for before noon. "

Sigurd Ring just sighed as he knew that his plan to assassinate Queen Malene had been completely a failure.

Perhaps he had relied too much on the abilities of his loyal warriors, as they had not been able to poison Queen Malene, which made him angry.

For he could not take over the kingdom of Denmark until that woman died, but he could not kill her while she was within the kingdom so he had been planning for some time to send her to the Nordic nation.

His plan was for her to be poisoned in that place in order to be able to take the throne and blackmail the Nordic nation for the death of Queen Malene.

But now all his ideas had fallen apart because it was almost completely impossible to kill Malene at that time, so he had to continue preparing his warriors and his servants.

He knew it would be a long and tedious process, but he was completely sure that once he did it, he could enjoy the power of the kingdom of Denmark.

Although he would have to wait at least until the war with the Christians was over, as he was not willing to risk everything simply to gain power.

Well, what use would it be to him if he didn't have a kingdom to call himself king? The best thing he could do was wait for the war to end in order to take power from Malene.

In the afternoon, all the representatives of the tribes and rulers of the Nordic region gathered at the wooden table in the dining room of the royal palace.

Malene handed all of them a copy of the treatise written on runes so that they could read it. When they all held it in their hands, they realized everything that was written.

"How you can observe the collection of the Nordic treaty that I signed with the Konungar Einar, three important points are mentioned.

The first one talks about the Nordic religion and how we have to implement it in order to counteract the Christian influence that has been prevailing lately due to the missionaries.

Which, despite being annoying has a value for the Konungar Einar, so if any of you have a Christian missionary, do not hesitate to bring them to the docks.

For it to be sold to the Nordic nation, that way we will end the problems in our respective homes.

The second treatise talks about the mutual recognition of the territorial limits of each one of us. Basically if you turn to your next page, you will see a map in which the Christian, Muslim and pagan world is divided. "

Everyone could see a map which had a strange color that divided the lands into different places "To begin with, the blue zone is the territory of the Nordic nation, these are completely prohibited for any kind of attack or action without express permission from him. Konungar Einar.

The green zone belongs to a so-called kingdom of Jews, which will be an important ally because according to the words of Konungar Einar, it will be a protection zone to prevent Christians or Muslims from attacking us.

The yellow zone belongs to a Muslim emirate, which will be created for the Nordic nation to trade with the emirate of Córdoba.

Which is in red, the Byzantine empire is in purple.

We are in white. How could you have realized we have many territories that we can conquer and in which we are going to receive support from the Nordic nation.

With the only condition, that we do not dare to expand towards the west because according to the words of the Konungar Einar.

The west is a land of chaos and it will be a place of constant clashes between different nations, so as long as we support the Jews we should have no problems.

The last important point has to do with the exchange of weapons because to begin with we will have privileges to receive weapons and armor as long as we deliver Nordic citizens or slaves failing that.

So I hope that from now on they will end once and for all the stupid traditions where babies are abandoned.

Well, just so you know, Konungar Einar will pay for baby and mother for two complete sets of armor, so I think the value is high enough to be able to take it into account before starting to kill the babies.

As for food, we do not have to worry because, in the trade we will receive boats full of dried or pickled fish.

That will guarantee our food and that of our people, but if we cannot feed them, nothing will happen either, because we can always send them to the Nordic nation and win objects with them.

I think it's a win-win development plan. "
