Chapter Eighteen

“Albans?” The speaker was tall, with long blond hair and a beard that descended nearly to his chest.

“Albans,” Bradan agreed. “I am Bradan the Wanderer, and this is Melcorka Nic Bearnas of the Cenel Bearnas.”

“And you? The speaker addressed Thyra.

“I am Thyra, daughter of Frida, daughter of Estrid,” Thyra answered with some pride.

“You're Norse. What are you doing with these Albans?”

“These Albans rescued me.” Thyra stood very erect, unafraid despite the arrows and spears pointing at her. “Take me to my father.”

The bearded man laughed. “Of course, your ladyship. And who is your father? Odin himself?”

“You may have heard of him,” Thyra said. “Jarl Thorfinn.”

The laughter stopped. The men who pointed spears at Thyra lowered them at once, while the archers directed their missiles towards Bradan and Melcorka.

“We'll take you to the Jarl,” the bearded man said. “If you are who you say you are.”

“Who are you?” Thyra accepted the Norsemen”s respect as if it were her due.

“I am Arne Ironarm,” the bearded man said.

“These two Albans saved me,” Thyra said. “They are my friends and are not to be harmed, Arne Ironarm.”

“You heard the lady,” Arne said. Reluctantly, the Norsemen lowered their spears and arrows, although there was suspicion rather than friendliness in their faces. “We”ll take you all to the Jarl,” Arne said, “and he will decide.”
