Stavanger Bay and every minute gets longer

haha, glad i am being up to par then! i mostly know tons of things about julooke's side of the fam, obviously, less so about the ostrega side. :D

It was a strange thought, that there was lots and heaps of family out there, just waiting to be met. Charon wasn't sure how much weight he should put into it. After all, this Mordecai fellow wasn't anything special either, even though he was also an Ostrega. Maybe the rest of them were a bunch of inconsiderate asshats too.

"My mum is — uhm, was an Ostrega too, right?" asked Charon. "Were my parents, like... related?" That would be sort of weird (but Charon didn't know much about this sort of stuff yet, so for all he knew it was totally normal and there was some Ostrega cousin waiting to be wed off to him somewhere), though it made sense in Charon's mind if they both had the same last name. He wasn't sure how family trees worked; he always thought that you just picked a family name when you became a couple, because that's what Ragnar had made it sound like when he'd once asked about his heritage and family. Ragnar had never mentioned that there were many others who had the same family name, too. Man, this stuff was confusing.
