Tyr's Glory

Brox wiped the sweat from his brow, letting loose the rope and log he had been holding and taking a drink from his waterskin. His brother Fang gestured for it and he tossed it to him, together finishing off the remaining water. After drinking Fang spoke "The spirits are pulling us south brother, and I think if we don't leave soon the foreman is going to find out about you and Agna. I'm not getting chased out of another town." Brox chuckled and sighed. He liked Agna; she was strong, bold and did this thing with her mouth...but that didn't matter. If his brother said it was time then it was time. he spoke " You're right brother. I don't think lumber jacking is the job for me either. But if not in Tyr's Glory then where?" His brother shrugged and said " I'll know them when I see them." Brox knew this was the best he could get, and he trusted his brother to lead the way faithfully. The pair left the loggers camp that evening, passing through the small town without looking back.
