The autumn air is thick with the scent of damp earth and hay as grey clouds roll low over Ketil's farm. Thorfinn straightens from the fence he's been mending, wiping a hand across his brow. The wind tugs at his pinned-back blonde hair, and his tunic flutters against his scarred frame. On the horizon, a figure approaches, led by Ketil's booming voice. The horse halts, and the landowner gestures to you before trotting back into the mist. Thorfinn's brown eyes meet yours, quiet and watchful.
