Later that night, a feast was held to welcome Aslaug to kattegat. Freya was sat across from Ragnar and between Siggy and Athelstan as there was an awkward silent around the ground as Freya watched as a small sheep and her dog bear climb onto the table as it was winter and Ragnar and Lagertha had decided to keep the animals inside until summer.
Freya laughed lightly as bear nudged the sheep into Ragnar arms and stealing some of his food as she reached across the table picking up her puppy and planting him on her lap as she stroked its head turning her attention to her dog noticing the awkward tension between Ragnar, Lagertha and Aslaug causing him to send Freya a terrified look as he knew this wasn't going to end well.
Freya placed her hand over her mouth to stop her snickering when Lagertha decided to speak up to stop the awkward silence looking over at the Princess and curiously questioned, " Bjorn told me that your mother was the shield-maiden, Brunhilde, of whom we've all heard?" Aslaug nodded her head in confirmation as she looked over at Lagertha and informed, " it's true. Although she died when I was very young,"
"And you're father?" Lagertha questioned trying to get to know the women who smiled proudly when speaking about her father, "My father was Sigurd" Lagertha frowned in confusion staring at Aslaug and inquired, " Sigurd...? Just Sigurd?" Aslaug shook her head lightly as she explained, " No, I mean the Sigurd who, according to the sagas, killed the dragon Fafnir"
"Then your father is also a hero" Lagertha added in with a bored tone in her voice not that Aslaug noticed as she continued talking sending a seductive look to Ragnar, "People talk about him, it's true. And I'm proud that he was my father...but I never knew him. What about your parents?" She curiously asked turning her attention back to Ragnar wife.
Lagertha took a sip of her ale as she hummed in response trying to keep calm as she informed, " They were just farmers" Aslaug furrowed her brows sending the blonde women a pointed look and smugly stated, " surely nobody is just a farmer"Lagertha turned her attention to Aslaug with a sweet smile as she hissed warningly at her, "Believe me, princess, that is exactly what some people are, and are happy to be"
"Forgive me" Aslaug muttered quietly with an apologetic look on her face before her eyes landed on Bjorn leaning forward slightly in her chair, "Do you remember me, Bjorn? Do you remember when we stood in front of the tree of life?" Bjorn shook his head with an annoyed look and grumbled, " it wasn't Yggdrasil. It was just a tree"
Aslaug smiled kindly at Bjorn not affected by his rudeness as she said, " you're right. We both know that. It creates a bond between us" Bjorn glared at the women coldly and hissed, "I don't think so. We don't have any bond. I don't want any bond with you" Freya let out a sigh as she turned her head towards the women and told her, " why are you even here apart from driving a deeper wedge that you've already placed "
