“This is my troll wife. I have agreed to take her. I made a vow the moment I saw the Blood Witch, and she said this woman was my destiny. I have no desire to leave this place, but you will force my hand if you try to take her from me. My father’s line does not end with me. Gunnar is perfectly capable of creating strong children. Therefore, I relinquish my claim to my father’s birthright and I give it to my brother.”
