Flashback (Age four)
After the second broken chair of the morning their mother Einmyria had made all four kids go outside despite the rain. Four kids all the same age under the same roof for an extended length of time usually led to some furniture casualties. Svalin and Halbjorn had been rather active and had caused the furniture breakage, but all four were shuffled outside despite many protests of innocence from Asleif and Aridis.

Svalin crossed her arms over her chest and harrumphed. She and Hal were only practicing their dragon slaying. The chairs made excellent dragons until they splintered apart. MomOne was quite vexed and she was certain to tell MomTwo and Father. They were certain to be punished later.

"Mother wouldst not be so vexed if we wert to slay a real dragon," she grumbled.

Thor ruffles his daughter's hair. "And thy brother went along, but tis a good instinct, for the leader of any expedition to take credit for its faults... and let the men take the credit for its successes. But worry not too much, they shalt not be happy... but this ist not too dissimilar to an adventure thine own mother had when young."

"Didst she try to fight a dragon too?" Svalin asked. "When I grow up I art going to be the mightiest shield maiden in all of Asgard."

"Nay, we ended up fighting savage wolves, not Hrimhari's brood. And aye, thou wilt be... but first thou must mindeth thine mothers, and get the chance to grow up."

"Didst you slay all of the wolves?" she asked. Svalin loved a good story. Especially the ones about battles. "Growing up doth take too long."

"Nay, they wert driven off, though. And twas when our families began serious talks of us marrying one day... once she wast no longer grounded."

It was hard for Svalin to imagine her mother being grounded or her other mother for that matter. Her Father said it was so so it had to have happened. "Didst she used a sword? Didst the wolves bite thee?" She was quiet for a second before she added, "I doth not want to marry."

"They came ver' close to biting both of us, but we barely managed to fend them off until aid arrived. At the time, we had but sticks, but it sufficed... barely. As for thee, worry not of marriage yet, thou'rt on a warrior's path from all I hath heard of your training, so mayhap such wilt not be for thee."

"I will tell thee the same thing mine father told me... thou wilt gain thy weapon when thou hast earned it. Right now thou hast worried thy mothers, and ruined pots... with noble intent... but no battle wast won by intent. Mind thine mothers, take thine lessons to heart... and in time, thou wilt hath a sword."

"Aye, Father," she said. She looked at her brother. "I art sorry for getting thee in trouble." It was probably best she apologized now before their punishments were handed out. There were probably a lot more chores ahead of the two of them.

"Worry not of it! Twas a fine adventure." He got in trouble a lot, and it wasn't like they were going to make him wash dishes or anything - he broke stuff too easy. Probably lots of wood chopping... which he didn't mind much.

Svalin nodded and sighed. "We art ready to go home now, Father," she said looking way up at their father.

Thor nods, scooping both up and heading for home through the air.
