Two years later, Sigurd brought him and Hytham[3] over to Norway, where he met Sigurd's adoptive younger sibling, Eivor.[4] While in Norway, he was influential in helping convince the Norsemen of the Raven Clan to relocate from the endless war and lack of resources, and told Eivor of a greater conspiracy by a hidden enemy to control the Norse as well as all of England.[1]
