NANI AND THE KINGDOM OF BERGLAND
Leaving Brundisium, My ship was ready to sail, now the snow is melted in the North, I decided to return to see again my Mother Lady BBArliss, my father Sir Mith Arliss and the land that welcomed and raised me, after I would go to the Northern Fjords to return to Hammersgaard, the Viking village, where I have a small house in the forest, between the port and the fortified village.
I did not give much weight to what they said, you know we often hear strange stories, and we left, the calm sea with a breeze from the South pushed us slowly, on the surface of the sea emerged blocks of ice here and there, effect of melting snow, from the mountains.
Nani ran towards me shouting:
-Darian we were attacked by men from the south with iron armor on their chest and iron weapons, they destroyed our village repeating that they would continue their conquest to the extreme north of the planet, we go to the KING of Bergland, to give us new lands where to rebuild the new village, then softly told me
beautiful Nani during my trip to the north when I was a Cartographer, then I visited cities and villages to draw and sell my maps to merchants, I had met her in Erik's inn, even if she was a wild warrior, but in love with Erik who also gave him a son, I was present at the birth of the child, but then the Taverniere thinks well to have the child kidnapped by the mother, for which Nani wanted to take him with him to the forest, disappearing soon after leaving the woman alone, who returned to being a warrior.
"who are you, what do you turn..
Nani approaches making himself known saying:
-Maesta is me your daughter Nani.
I look at her in silence scrutinizing her, I think I did a good job and it came up well,
- Sit by my side daughter this and your place, even if you are full of mud and dirty as a
miner,Nani sat awkwardly on that throne, she was not used to being treated by Regina, but looking around, she thought about how much gold she would inherit when KING Juan died , and said:
- father but I am your only daughter ? thinking about his future with all the gold he would inherit.
-Yes my daughter I have had only one woman in my life, and I thought she had turned into a wolf of the forest, she gave me you as a gift, I do not die alone, and tell me what brings you here and your dirty and wounded friends ? she
listens to her father without understanding what he meant, she took a breath looking at her friend Lagertha, and her backpack where she hid a small blond owl, which moving made an imperceptible noise, also for that from so long stopped in the backpack she was tired and wanted to shake her legs and drink some water. She thought of the warriors who accompanied her, confident of having new lands for their trade, and I look at Darian the wisest of all who sat listening to what they said, knew very well that he would give good advice at the end, while watching Luisan his nervous companion playing with his knife always ready to defend Viking women, then healing his father said:
-Father we were attacked and burned the village and destroyed all our land, and we are here with what remains of our treasures to ask for new lands for us, our Bersekers managed to leave on a ship with our Jarl Sir Erick
As he spoke, a man dressed in white entered the hall, sat in the first seats to the right of the King. I greet everyone with a sign of blessing of the hand.
"Welcome," said the King, and to all, he said
- This is a Bishop of the Catholic Church of Rome visiting my Kingdom.
Everyone looked at the haughty man who sat in his clean habit being careful not to get dirty, looking at him with suspicion, they prayed to their God Odin, and they did not know other Gods, but if the King had him as a guest then it is sacred, but while they were talking it happened that the little blond owl, escaped from the backpack running to the corner of the room trying not to be discovered, but he had attracted the attention of Luisan who with a feline leap ran to the corner capturing the baby, who wriggled emitting strange grunts, Luisan kicked and punched I brought him to the door chasing him away, but Laghertha stopped him shouting that he was with her and was part of a tribe isolated in the forest, which resembled an Elf because of its pointed ears but it was not, I put it back inside throwing it at the feet of Nani
, Nani was busy making visual inspections for how much gold he would inherit from his father and thought hopefully he will give us lands in this region of Bergland, the Bishop after blessing everyone went away greeting the King who told him:
-Good trip, Your Eminence, and greet the Pope of Rome when you see him.
Then I go back to the guests where the looked at the warrior Luisan with languid eyes, King Juan does not escape this situation and I think there must have been something else between them, he does not believe that it is only his escort as a warrior, meanwhile I order the attendants to prepare the rooms for the guests and with the help of his advisor. He took a large map and delisted. The land he would give his daughter for reconstruction of the village.

The next day Lagertha, with her baby in her arms, entered the throne room, King Juan, sitting and looking at her while she thanked him for the land she had for the reconstruction of the village, but the King looked behind her and said:
-Come forward daughter sit with me.
Then turning to the guard he said:
-Where did you put that little blonde devil.
The guard smiling sarcastically said:
-I tied him to a tree to contemplate the sky, and the mountains.
But he thought that anyone would know how to escape tied to a tree in the forest.
The King and Dwarves looked at the guard with amazement, he would surely die out there in the cold tied to the tree, and said to his father:
-Father that little blond boy and definitely an envoy of the Gods and we can not leave him out.
The King commanded the guard to free him and take him inside to interrogate him, while he looked at his daughter who often leaned on that warrior named Luisan, he did not want to think of having a simple warrior in his family, meanwhile Lagertha told him about the beginning of the works for the village started from the great hall, the king looked at her pleased, but I think how could the King's daughter live with those wilds, then turning to the warrior said:
-Sir Clark go into the forest and look at anything strange and bring the little blond here.
the Warrior stepped forward and said:
-Greetings to all I am Clark the King's brother, I was away in Liechstein to make a trade alliance with us, Princess Dwarves are at your disposal, I am the general commander of Bergland's army.
Meanwhile lagertha thought that a rich city could be attacked and conquered, and listened trying to understand how far it was and if it could be reached by fleet and what kind of resistance they would find, but he remained silent listening to the foreigners, while Sir Cklark said that it would be nice to have a large ship in port, with two days at sea you could arrive, while Lagertha listened interestedly.
-Well said Lagertha, we will give you two ships, we must first explore the forest, then reach the Lichestain, but we want the profits of trade, because we have been destroyed and we must start from scratch waiting for our Jarl to return from his journey of trade in the South.
King Juan approves and tells his brother if you see Count Edward greet him for me.
While Nani felt that he was about to go into a trance, (it was something that often happened to him when he heard that someone could die) but he supported himself so as not to be discovered by his father so I put his head on a column and fell asleep snoring,
The King looks at the woman with her child and asks him what her name is, saying it is useless to have so many ships at the port burned them will be run down, two will be enough for us, Lagertha looks at him worried and tells him:
-Maesta the ships are solid and a shame to burn them, my name is lagertha and I am the wife of the great Jarl Erick of hammersgaard and this and his son, he would never put his wife and son on dangerous ships.
Nani looked around, she did not understand much about the Vikings but she told her father maybe we can make her become Be-ha's advisor, Lagertha throws him a questioning look, who is Be-ha wondered, Nani saw the strange look and tells him:
- And the new name of the lands had by the King, together with the kingdom, Bergland-Hammersgaard, this means ''Be-ha''
The warrior thought that the king would prefer Ha-be, but he said nothing, at which point Nani asks the father to give a title to his squire Lagertha, thinking that the great Jarl Erick would be happy, the King looked at his daughter and said:
-I make a coin we will call it Beha coin and your child will grow up with us then he gets up he takes the sword and making the woman approach, I appoint her State Councilor.
-Now go to the forest, save that little blond before he dies, then continue with the reconstruction and trade.
Then I look at Nani asking him why she was alone and did not have a partner, Nani looked back looking at the man who had been silent all the time but said nothing.
