She woke early and got herself dressed in her mothers favorite dress. She made her way out to find Ivar. As she came to the blacksmith she could hear him. "Have you been here all night?" She asked him making her way inside.

He continued and spared her a glance. "Hvitserk, should be back any day." She told him as she sat. She kept thinking of her brother as she missed him dearly. He was the only person to go to the forest for flowers with her.

"I'm glad for you, sister." He said when he stopped and she smiled. "You need to sleep, Ivar." He shrugged as he went back to his work. "Ivar and Grace, your father is dead. Killed by serpents. Cold in the cold, iron earth, Ragnar lies." Said a man that looked as Odin.

Grace felt tears fall to her lap as she sat. She then decided to stand and went to Ivar. He was very much angry but equally sad. She put her arms around him and cried to his shoulder. He let her knowing how much a toll it took on her.

She thought about when Hvitserk would find out, and little did she know he wanted to be with her to. "I will be going." She said wiping her tears and walking out. As she walked to the forest she heard metal clanging.

She sat under a tree as she cried. She thought about when her and Ragnar used to play in the forest. It became her safe haven once he left due to the good memories she had. Those memories were know far gone as she cried.

She heard footsteps and looked to find Ubbe. He was shocked as he came to find her to see if she was fine. He fell to the ground next to her. "He's dead, Ubbe. I mean he's actually dead." She said with sobs racking her voice. He took her into his arms as she started to sob again.

"I know." Was all he said and he rocked back and forth with her. As they sat there it began to rain. "We must get home. A storm may be coming." He said getting up with her still in his arms. She nodded as she pulled away "Can I stay with you?" She asked as he nodded quickly.

When they reached his room she told him "I need one thing. I will be back after." He nodded going into his room. She ran to her room and grabbed the last gift her father gave her. It was a coin from before he left. He had left that coin on her pillow for her to find.

She went back to Ubbes room with the coin in hand. She got into the bed as Ubbe did to. She turned to her side clutching the coin to her heart. She felt Ubbe move so his back was to hers touching, so she could feel safe and at ease. Soon she fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning she woke to Ubbe gone and still had the coin in hand. She got up and went to the door. Soon it was open with Sigurd standing there "we are having a meeting. Let's go." He said linking their arms together.

Once they reached the place she sat down next to Ivar. Sigurd went about sharping a knife at the door. "That is my knife. That is my knife." Ivar repeated as Sigurd closed the door.

"No it is not." Sigurd said sitting down. "Give it to me." "Your crazy. It's not your knife. Father gave me this knife." "I want it. I will kill Lagertha with it. I will kill Lagertha with Fathers knife!" He said making his way to Sigurd but Sigurd moves to face away.

"Well, you can't have it." "You are both being children." Grace said as Ubbe said "that's enough." But as that was said Ivar slipped the chair from under Sigurd. "Can you boys be nice for once!" She yelled at then standing up.

They fought on the floor as Ubbe stood and separated them. Grace went to Ivar as Ubbe made Sigurd stand. "We have an important decisions to make." "As usual you must tell us how to behave." "Who else would do it?" Ubbe told him then sat down.

"I wish Bjorn was here." "You think he knows about father?" "Oh, so, you think that Odin told us, but forgot to tell Bjorn? Hmm?" Ivar said then tapping his head. "Hopefully he will be home soon. In the meantime, it is up to us to decide what to do." Ubbe said as Grace sat back down where Ubbe previously was.

"What about Hvitserk?!" She asked in a yell. She thought to why her brothers forgot of him. She stood fast and went out of the room.
