The Sage of Einar

After resting for a week, Einar left the capital of the kingdom of Breifne and began his way to the kingdom of Ailech.

The path was a little easier, this due to the fact that in the mountains and hills of the place there were not as many trees as in the swamps.

Einar who was on his horse looked at Dreide who was looking rather curiously at the hills.

"This looks extremely beautiful. I wish our tribe was located in a place like this and not the swamp where we have been living for years.

But I suppose that if we were on one of these hills, it would be much more difficult to defend against the attacks of the Christians.

In the end, we are destined to be in the swamp in order to survive. "

Einar smiled and patted Dreide on the shoulder. "Don't worry, that's why when this war is over I will entrust your tribe with a good fertile area in the east of the Island.

Far from the disgusting swamps, where they can have a relatively stable life, but if that is not enough I promise you that in the future it could give your tribe a beautiful place in paradise.

However, you will have to wait for that because first we have to end this war, which will end when we conquer Rome and have Emperor Ludovico in our hands.

It will not be something easy, however I can promise you that this conflict will not last more than 5 years, when things have returned to their tranquility.

It could start with the true expansion of the empire in an area far from this place, however we have to do everything in order because otherwise it would be quite complicated and even impossible to achieve that goal.

What we need most now is population, which we are going to get in Europe. "

Dreide turned his head and showed a flirtatious smile. "You keep surprising me, I'm sure our children will be just like you."

Einar just laughed. "They won't need to be like me. They can go on any path they want. We as parents just have to focus on making them happy.

That is the change he tried to bring. That is why I reformed my entire government. I know that many nobles may hate me and even treat me with contempt.

But I am not really interested in their opinions, because for me the most important thing is the family, because everything that one does can be lost in time, however the memory will last in our family.

You may not believe it, but I have seen the future and I can tell you that the nobility system is destined to be forgotten, this because of many factors.

However, the most important are that the population will demand a change, one where they fight for equality and respect for the laws.

In the end, the only thing I'm doing is bringing that change and delivering it to the citizens in that way. I guarantee that our family can last for countless generations. "

Dreide was surprised and looked at Einar curiously "How the future is, I would like to know what happened to our population."

Einar looked sadly at Dreide. "They were assimilated by the Christians like us Nordics, our customs and religion were lost in time.

Although many tried to bring them back, the church personally took it upon themselves to completely destroy the history of our existence.

We are only remembered in the future for the books that talk about us; it is not that they have not become extinct because our descendants continue to live.

It's just that they lost their origins and became something new. It's what happens when we lose to a greater force.

However, the future that I could see is one where I do not exist, but I can assure you that I will do everything possible to change that future.

From the first moment I set out to make a change, the future has changed and it will depend on our descendants what kind of future they want. "

After this, the two continued talking and at night they established a camp, where they prepared everything necessary to be able to rest.

The next day they continued with the walk. After three days they reached the border with the kingdom of Ailech.

They knew how well the border arrived because there were a lot of abandoned checkpoints which showed what was on the border.

The vanguard was in charge of reviewing all the guard posts, however they did not find anything of value and because of the damage to the buildings they concluded that it had been well abandoned for a few months.

After having passed through the border, they set out on their way to the capital of the kingdom, which was in the west near the coast.

The road was a bit more complicated than in the kingdom of Breifne, this mainly because the cold was stronger in that area.

But despite that, the army continued advancing through the hills of the place. After a few days, they were able to reach the capital city.

Which had an enormous wall almost 7 meters high. It was undoubtedly the largest circular wall they had encountered.

Unlike the other walls, it was made of quarry stone, so it caught Einar's attention.

'Without a doubt the walls are quite impressive. I doubt if any of the prisoners we have with us know the history of this place.'

Einar ordered the siege of the city to begin and he approached the slaves and Irishmen who accompanied his army, to whom he asked if anyone knew the history of the place.

Fortunately, a captured merchant raised his hand, so Einar allowed him to join him for tea so that he could tell the history of that city.

In a tent, the merchant drank some pine tea. "Thank you very much for the hospitality of King Einar, but let me tell you what I know about the city of Dun na nGall.

As I heard from my travels in the north when I was still a young man selling goods around the island, the city of Dun na nGall was a capital city that had long belonged to invaders.

However, after the family that occupied that place, they decided to build gigantic walls in that city to guarantee that it would never be conquered by foreigners.

The little that I can remember is that they had used a lot of slaves and population to build them.

They took more than 40 years to do it, but they managed to create those walls. "

Einar was surprised as the city of Dun na nGall must have been the ancient capital of the Roman legion that had escaped to Ireland.

'I guess everything is connected.'
