Stavanger Bay how far you'll go

It was heavy on his heart, these three words and Aiolos could see it in the scarred man's expression as the silence lingered there. His road here had been a hard one and he seemed hesitant about settlement. It was likely the marring he wore was not out of wanting. Like Aiolos own, this young man's home in the marshes had not been kind to him.

I became leader because they chose me to be. Because they trust me to guide and protect them. He had never striven for such, had never asked it of him. Even the first time, it had almost been begged of him where Aiolos had forever and always did not believe a placement above others were something he, the bastard, deserved. I seek nothing for myself... He pauses, his eyes narrowing with a smile as he looks back to the waters. Well, maybe I'd like myself to be successful... To be all what they need me to be.
