Solveig’s smile grew, to hear Eivor call out in a song with the intention of goading the Shieldmaiden into belting out a line that would make the other parents within earshot reach to cover their children’s ears. She listened along, her merry green eyes lifted up as she listened to the rhyme, bobbing her square chin along with the rhythm.
The game evoked memories of her youth- and while she had once received a hearty clout from an elder Shieldmaiden for repeating the song to younger children, she’d returned the gesture and sung it back even louder, much to the amusement of the other warriors.

eivor laughed aloud, colliding their shoulders as she thought of what next to say —
"burn in me a song," she ended that sentence. "i stand in our flame, our saga is writ, i raise up my blade,"
hot breath snorted from her nostrils; her eyes were for solveig entire, though she sidestepped a cluster of revel-makers, finding their pace once more.
