The Sage of Einar

The monks, after reading the Nordic bible, looked at Einar seriously.

"Could you lend us this book for just three days? In that time we will have an answer to King Einar's proposal."

Einar smiled and spread his hands. "You have three days to give us an answer. I will wait patiently at the siege camp."

The two monks nodded and walked away to return to their monastery. Dreide looked curiously at Einar.

"Are monks that important?"

Einar nodded and looked seriously at Dreide. "Monks are the most studied people you can get in these places, taking away the nobles.

This because they are dedicated exclusively to reading and transcribing books, that is why they are necessary for the Nordic nation.

Well, with a training of a few months they can be the best teachers for children, although they have a serious problem and it is that unfortunately they are too believers in religion.

This is because their lifestyle simply stays within the walls of their monastery, so the only thing they can do is cling to religion in order to stay sane.

Which is not bad, however for what they need the Nordic nation is something useless, in any case it will completely depend on them what they want to do. "

Three days after the monastery, an old man came out and had the clothing of a high-level monk inside the monastery.

The monk approached the siege camp and after being searched he was taken to Einar who was sitting enjoying a pine tea.

"Welcome Abbot, it is a pleasure to see that you already have an answer."

The Abbot looked seriously at Einar, and he knelt on the ground. "We are ready to go to the island of Iceland so that we can discover all the secrets of the Nordic Bible.

In their texts, we find something completely different from the Bible that the church of Rome did especially in the gospel according to Judas Iscariot.

Thinking that God is everywhere is something that completely changes the understanding of religion. "

Einar drank some pine leaf tea and looked seriously at the Abbot. "When you arrive on the island of Iceland, you will be able to learn some other secrets that are not in the bible.

However, I believe that the most important thing that you will discover is the fact that there will be a great number of priests and priestesses who will be able to guide you in the new understanding of life.

Because you have decided to join the Nordic nation, you will be able to keep all your things and belongings. I will leave with you an army of 100 soldiers to help you.

You must remember to go to the kingdom of Ireland and wait in the city of Dublin, where I will personally arrive and we can all go on the same boat to Iceland.

You will not have to worry about anything because the 100 guards will be with you at all times. That will be a way to guarantee your own safety.

Also, your food and lodging expenses will be fully covered. I know that being in a city can be complicated for you.

But it will only be temporary once we get to Iceland will the construction of their new monastery begin, not only that but they will also get a way to transcribe books more quickly and efficiently.

But that will be until some time later. Now I do apologize Abad, I have to leave with my army towards the barony of Sligo to make a deal with the Celtic tribe that lives in that region. "

The Abbot lowered his head in respect. Einar only sighed and left 100 guards to take care of the monks on their way to Dublin.

After this, Einar's army prepared and in the afternoon they left for the Barony of Sligo, unlike the other times they refrained from going through the villages because the vanguard had already reviewed them previously and only found corpses.

After advancing for about 4 days, they reached the border between the two baronies, so Dreide went to the front of the army and sound a marine conch.

With which the Celtic peoples communicated, it was a way of informing that they were there on behalf of another Celtic people.

After sounding that conch from among some snowy trees, a few men and women came down, which were covered by animal skins.

Dreide made a weird handshake, and the group leader made another weird handshake as well.

After this, Dreide and the leader smiled and started talking.

"I am glad to see that the princess of the Kincora tribe is in good condition, but what is it that you have come to look for in our territory and who are those who follow you."

Dreide smiled, and with a wave of her hand asked Einar to come closer. Einar got off his horse and started walking towards Dreide.

Upon arriving, Dreide placed her hand on Einar's shoulder. "He is King Einar, leader of the Norse and the cause of the loss of the Christian kings on the island.

But even more important is my fiancé because of that he belongs to the Kincora tribe. That is why we are meeting here to talk about a possible alliance with your tribe.

My fiancé, King Einar, he has no intention of conquering any of the Celtic baronies on the island, which means we can live without fear.

But it will all depend on the decision of your tribe and the decision of the Derry tribe. "

The leader of the Celts looked at Einar and his army before sighing. "May your entire army follow us and for no reason allow them to try to move anywhere other than we are walking.

This is because in the swamp we have installed a lot of traps because of the constant harassment of the Christians in this place. "

Einar nodded and gave the orders to his army before getting on his horse, before he could get on. Dreide smiled at him and got on the horse first.

"You will have to climb behind me because we have to be together. I hope you don't mind."

Einar just smiled and got on the horse, leaving Dreide in front of him. She blushed a little when Einar's muscular arms hugged her waist.

Although neither of them spoke, it was the first time that they had been able to spend time together, so they just enjoyed the moment.
