It was when he declared Volund as [I]our[/I] father that Eben remembered with strong conviction why he had greed to sail with Thorir in the first place. It would have been easy just to flee, to give up on his name, his lineage, and all else, but Thorir saw something in Eben that the younger brother did not entirely find true. But, he had learned to believe in the Thorir that believed in him, and so when they spoke in confidence Eben knew that his half-brother fully trusted him.
