Viking knew how to control his own dreams. With centuries of practice he honed the skill. But this source of Gwen's was clearly better at it than him. That concerned him. In an effort to give himself home court advantage he morphed his dream landscape into a field his nephew and nieces used to play in. Where he and his sisters played before that. No one from the Seattle area would know this region. It might not be much of an advantage but he would take what he could get.

He did not have to wait long. He felt Gwen and another woman standing behind him before they made a sound. Not one to delay the inevitable, Viking turned to face the women, hand on the sword hilt at his waist.

What he saw made him drop his hand. At first he though his brain stopped processing information properly and his blood ran cold. It was impossible. This woman in front of him could not be who he thought she was. Time seemed to stop. His heart, his breathing all ceased as he watched the woman standing next to Gwen. She was looking back at him with an expression that must have matched his own.

"Mother?" A chill ran through his already icy veins as the long unused word escaped his lips.

Her eyes filled with tears "Eindriði?" Her hands flew up to cover her lips. Her tears fell freely down her cheeks. "How did you survive? We were told you had died."

Vikings heart beat loudly in his ears as if to make up for the momentary pause. "Who? Who told you this?"

"The men who ransacked the village. They told us they happened upon the hunting party and killed them in their sleep."

He could feel himself shaking at the cowardly act. "I was not with the hunting party. I heard a voice telling me to hunt to the south. Only three men came with me. What of my sister's husband? He was a Warrior. He should have survived."

She shook her head "He was not more than four and twenty. Not old enough for his body to be at full strength. They killed everyone in the village except the young ones. They took them as slaves. We fought well, but there were more of them and they were better armed.

"But we hid our children. I saw them as I died, sneaking off into the woods. Eyvindr was herding his sisters and a few other children. I vowed to watch over them until I knew they were safe. They stayed deep in the woods for two moon cycles before coming back to the village. They scavenged what they could and became a band of nomads until they were old enough to defend themselves and joined a coastal village. Eyvindr still lives, he grew strong like his Warrior ancestors. He lives in Alaska with his mate. I have been watching over our family, nurturing…." Her eyes went wide and she took a step back so she could look into Gwen's confused face.
