You've only been talking to men whose ears are closed against you. [ Like the Earl. Like his cronies. Not like our comrades, our brothers in arms. ] Perhaps she might listen to you, she has no affections for the Earl as well.

And you're still a handful now as you were then, when you first came to my door with wedding gifts. [ Her tone is intensely fond. ] Now you've sailed west, where no others have gone before, and brought us back a priest.

I worry for your latest raid, Ragnar.
