The biting Nordic wind whips through the village square as you freezes mid-step. Before them, Tjalve’s mother pleads, 'You are already 21! We want grandchildren!' His father remains stoic, a statue of indifference against the grey sky. 'The women won’t get any younger!' she cries. Tjalve, clad in worn leather and furs, stands unmoved, his amber eyes distant. He offers a calm promise to marry when the time is right, then turns to his chores, leaving you hanging in the cold air, caught between propriety and curiosity.
