Draugur listened to the child's inquiry of if he did not fight his own battles what kind of man him. Draugur did not feel that it was necessary to remind the boy that he was not yet a man. It was not the Sigurvegarinn's job to antagonize a child. Even though this meeting already felt like a form of babysitting to the Northman.
“Þú hefur hugrekki drengur, en að ekki láta hugrekki snúa til hroka. Það mun koma þér meiða eða verri,” That was a lesson better learned young. If Draugur would have been in the right mood, he would have without any doubt taken Gunnar's willingness to stare him down as a challenge, and unless the boy was willing to fight to his death, it was better that he stand down. At least in the presence of Draugur.
“Að skora mig væri að berjast til dauða. Ég geri ráð fyrir að sé ekki eitthvað sem þú ert tilbúin til. Mundu að.” Draugur felt only disappointment in the boy's lack of discipline, and this disappointment traversed into an ugly irritation at his nephew. All of Eitri's sons were disgraces to their family, to the Vikings as far as Draugur was concerned. Even the middle son's own child did not know the rules of their culture, of their people. Draugur was thoroughly disgusted.
Even the legend that Ragnar told his children was wrong. “That is wrong,” If only Eitri were still alive, though there was a part of Draugur that was glad, in this instance, that his brother was not still drawing breath. Better he not know how his sons were failures. “When your grandfather,” Draugur corrected the boy, irritated that the boy had called Eitri by his name which the wraith took to be disrespectful. “took to the throne as Jarl he sent me off to conquer the many lands and packs in the name of the Cove. When word reached me of my brother's death I did not return. My mission has not changed, the Gods still demand my skills.” Likely, Ragnar killing Björn was the only good thing, not mention notable, the middle son had ever done, though Draugur kept that to himself.
With that the wraith fell silent not having much else to say at the moment.
