It wasn't as different as she thought, he may dream of his family but he knew what was waiting back home. Canute's 'mercy' he was to be sold into slavery. A secret he held close to his heart with shame. A jarl dropped to a thrall. It was shameful. He looked over to her offering a weak smile at his own dark thoughts. "Then let's fight leaving. Let's stay together."
He moved on in tongue water as she undressed more than just for love of the water but wanting the chill to cool his body back down. He hated the reactions he got watching her undress, he knew he shouldn't but she didn't seem to mind, he just hated the idea of her noticong his body betraying him at the sight of her soft skin and thinking him a letch.
He smiled back at her before looking up. "I think it's our loved ones. Watching us from above. Askeladd said they are just stars aa design to lead sailors and hunters and a pattern of tales for the long lost romans... he talked a lot sometimes. And yet I don't remember any of those tales anymore. "
