So I was going through quest stuff..
The next is the still-unknown brother who you drove off back on the ice. He's bigger than before and, judging by the ring on his finger, is now married himself. To who, you don't know. If they're anywhere nearby, though, you might have another family propped up against you when you inevitably make Horra's life a living Hel.
Hirkir Horrason is married.
Could it be possible to find Hirkir by going through his wife?
I wonder if Hasvir has made the ironic conclusion that our trespass of Horrsby/Hasviby is the reason his family is alive.
Did we ever find out if Knappr and Hod Bodily Died, or simply weren't at the house when Horra Did The Thing?
"So," Halfdan's words are slow and carefully chosen he runs his fingers across the top of a chair, "it seems we're family now."
"It would seem that way, yes." Steinarr acts in much the same way, though his hands are occupied with getting a barrel down from a tree. He pauses as his hand twitches, thoughts racing through his head.
Neither Steinarr nor Halfdan are all that sure of each other. Their faces twist as their lips thin, neither side wanting to make the first move — whatever that move may be.
Eventually, though, Steinarr's eyes harden. His arm swings out, fingers splayed wide, and a glimmer of hope rings in his voice.
"No hard feelings, Halfdan?"
Halfdan is quiet for a long time as he makes up his mind. But then, like lightning striking, he slaps his palm to Steinarr's and nods.
"No hard feelings, Steinarr," Halfdan says as he shakes Steinarr's hand. A wave of relaxation washes over the gathered family as both men nod and break away, returning to what they were doing. They're not friends and likely never will be, but — even if only for the sake of their children — they'll have each other's back.
Steinarr now has
two brother-in-laws! Vidar and Halfdan. Kerr was his brother in law too but he's dead.
Plus I'm sure with enough Yule holidays and feasts they'll become friends! There's also a war saga coming up which should be a good bonding experience
if it doesn't kill them horribly which it probably will to be honest.
Hmm, Halla's legal relations beyond her family:
Strigr and Stigmar (and Stigulf Snowbeard) are her brother-in-laws, through Eric & Stigrun
Stigr's Unnamed Mother* is her.. Aunt-in-Law (?), through Eric & Stigrun
Halfdan is her.. uncle-in-law (?), through Asva.
Vidar is her father-in-law through Abjorn. But Vidar basically never shows up in the story.
Solrun is I think unrelated to Halla (grandaunt in law???), even if she was related to Sten/Sterki?
*Speaking of which, did Stigr's Mother come with Eric/Stigrun when they came over?
That would have meant that, at one point, Steinarr's Crowded Home would have had all of these staying in his home at the same time:
Steinarr, Asva, Sterki, Steinkell, Randi, Flekkr, Abjorn, Halla, Asgeirr, Sigurdr, Eyvor, Hallbjorn, Stigr, Stigmar, Stigrun, Eric, Leif, Leikny, Tryggr, Trausti, Gabriel
Or about 21 people (of whom 12 were Adults, 8 were Children and 1 was Flekkr). Plus potentially Jerasmus and Stigr's Mother.
Of course, Steinarr wouldn't complain. He loves having his family around him.
Even if it means putting up with Halla's expanding entourage of Huskarls.
