The Sage of Einar

A few days after cleaning the barony of Adragh, Einar was lying in his bed when he had memories of what had happened that day.

Those memories I can clearly see how the groups of the holy company disappeared as his daughter in her white deer form walked.

Later, the memories passed to the castle where some writings that were on the ground simply disappeared as if they were only illusions.

However, something strange happened in that dream because somehow everything stopped as if it were an old movie.

At that moment Einar woke up because he felt fear because he could see things that he did not understand. It was like a movie summarized in images.

He stroked his head with his while he tried to think about that nightmare he had had 'I guess when you stop being ignorant things start to get complicated.

But this is the second time that I can see those images. What will they mean ... '

Einar interrupted his thoughts when he could feel his fiancée's hand grasping his arm. "Are you okay, Einar?"

With a smile, Einar turned his head and looked at Dreide. "If I'm okay, I just had a nightmare, so you shouldn't worry about it.

That is what I had visions about something that I cannot understand yet. I do not know if it is about the future or the past.

Although I also cannot rule out the idea that it is something that I cannot understand, whatever it is, I just interrupted my sleep. "

Dreide got up and stroked Einar's hair. "I know I can't be of much help. however you could lean on me so you can rest.

I think it's the best way you can rest. "

Einar sighed and kissed his wife. "Although since we are both awake, how would you like to have a little privacy."

Dreide showed a mischievous smile and pushed Einar onto the bed. "This time I'll be the one to do all the work, you just have to relax."

The next day, the two of them got out of bed and got ready to do all the work they had to do for the day.

When they finished bathing, they left their room in the royal palace in Dublin so they could go to the dining room.

Upon arrival, they found Vilhelm who was waiting for them. "What a joy to see what you have woken up. Come and sit down to enjoy breakfast.

I know they are not the foods you are used to eating, but I did my best to be able to imitate the food you make, Einar. "

Einar smiled and holding Dreide's hand the two of them sat at the table when at that moment some servants came out with trays of food.

After serving plates of food, they all began to eat breakfast until Vilhelm looked earnestly at Einar.

"What are you planning to do now that the war in Ireland is over?"

Einar stroked his mustache. "For the moment I will stay in Dublin for another week to prepare everything necessary to be able to leave with the new population and the army.

However, I think I will make one more achievement which is going to be very important for all of us as it is going to be a point of entry and defense for Ireland.

How do you know there is a small island in the northeast of Ireland which is called Mon, I plan to conquer that small island to have a defense point.

It will not be something easy, however, it will take approximately 2 weeks to conquer it completely, I will leave somehow many troops but if you can support me with some soldiers, I would be quite delighted.

In order to kill all of them, I will use chlorine gas, that powerful weapon that allows you to kill any defender without damaging the castle, so the vast majority of the defenses will be in good condition.

So maintaining that island should not be too inconvenient for you, since I am almost completely sure that none of the nations of the island of Britain will dare to launch an attack against it.

For they should be more concerned with maintaining their own safety than attempting to attack Ireland or the island of Mon.

This mainly because they are not united as the Irish kingdoms were, this because each region is dominated by different cultures.

Come to the north we have the Scots in much of the center of the Island. There are the Anglo-Saxons, a strange combination between two cultures that derived from the Romans who stayed on the island and the Saxon invaders.

While in the west we have the Welsh, all those cultures cannot coexist with each other so conquering the island should, in theory be easy.

However, it also has its drawbacks because the place of facing castles and cities with a low number of defenders.

We will be facing each city and each Castle with all the defenders, that means that we will not be able to advance as fast as we can.

So we will have to be wasting a great deal of time just in being able to get a single bastion out of our hands.

Which also represents a big problem for me. You can unlike castles and cities that were only defended by warriors.

I will have to make riskier decisions to be able to destroy those fortifications, because if I use dangerous methods I would be causing the death of many citizens.

Unfortunately, the most important thing for us at this time is the population, so I cannot put all that at risk at the time of the conquest.

But I suppose these are things that we will have to be analyzing over the course of the months. Either way, I would like you to implement the policies of having many children.

Having enough babies may not do any good at this point. However, in the future, those babies will become the driving force behind the empire I plan to build.

I will also dedicate myself to implement the same policies in the Nordic nation. If everything goes correctly, at least in about 40 years, we will have a few million people.

Which might seem like a lot, however it is just a drop of water which is too tiny because in my plans it is for the population to be a few hundred million or billions. "

Vilhelm looked at his son with a smile. "You are certainly quite an interesting person Einar, but you can be sure that I will support you in whatever you need."
