They’re your daughters, after all.” “Bah,” Lazgar said, “born from a mistake. My clan has no place for such half-breeds. Look at this one….my eldest….eats like a champion, but swings her axe like a human. She drains our tribe’s resources, and contributes so little. And her sister. Always in her books, always thinks she knows everything. My hold-witch says she has talent, but she won’t learn the old ways. Always reading, and thinking. It’s not good for a Jarl to have such a daughter. I would have exiled her long ago if she was somebody else’s, but I kept hoping I could change her.”
The barbarian bowed her head. “I will take them, as you said. I will apprentice them. But what will you do with these two prisoners?”
Lazgar looked at the women in front of her. “Well, the half elf’s too ugly to be a domestic, and she’s too weak-looking for the mines. I suppose she can work the fields. And the hunter? She’s pretty, and strong, no doubt stronger than my daughters…but she has a rebellious spirit. We’ll have to break her, and then, we’ll see.”
