"Do you want any payment?" You asked.
"Oh no… a life that I have given birth too, is payment enough." She stated before she wandered away. She paused and turned. "Actually, I do have one thing to ask."
"Name it." You replied.
"You shall know it, my child… I assure you." She then walked away. "You shall know it."

The Raid Miniturn 1
The Raid Miniturn 1:

The ship was ready to sail as the morning sun rose over the fjord. The men had gathered and you were ready for a great raid.

Your family was waiting, but they were still… unsure whether to leave or not.

Dankmar sighed as he looked to you, his eyes misty, and full of worry. "Einar, I know this path you walk is for us… but I'm asking you to stay. I don't want to hear how you went to Valhalla. I want you to be with us so that you can see your children grow.

"Father, I'm not going to die, I promise you that." You stated, quietly. "I've raided before."

"That's not the point boy." He replied. "You had hundreds of men with you, and they were all more battle-tested than you were. Now you're going alone, with only fifty men. I trust them all with your life, but I don't trust them from your rash actions!"

"They why don't you come, Kara can help care for the little ones, and the lands too if you feel that way?" you asked.

"I want to boy, believe me every aching fiber of my being I want to be with you to prevent your stupidity from killing you, but I have to care for those who cannot care for themselves." He replied. "That's final. I won't come with you."

"What about Elric? He's of age now, enough to where he can learn the riggings of the ship, and defend it?"

Your father seemed… hesitant. "I'm not denying that might be good for him if only to get those blasted thoughts out of his mind… But I can't risk both of my sons… not unless you promise me he will stay safe."

"You know I'll keep. I always have." You replied arrogently.

"If you do bring your brother, tell that to my face." Dankmar replied.

You nodded and walked over to Kara, being helped by her father. "I'm sorry that I have to leave."

"Don't be. Just return home safe." She replied solemnly.

Let's take some Umayyad concubine so that our descendant can claim descent from it down the line. Would be fun.

@Magoose will choosing a location that is far away from us change the amount of time we are at sea or can we choose anyplace and it will take the same time

This is the only reason why I am voting for this. There is no other reason
I don't want to be the party pooper but that is rather unlikely, the Umayyad have only really been in control of the peninsula for about a hundred years and the population is still predominately christian. Anybody of any real status is going to be far outside our ability to get to with only 50 men.
