LMAO Halfdan got beat at negotiations by (the appearance of) a baby, what a softie
But really though, this "Drama" was probably to tie up the loose end of Halfdan not having a successor, though it didn't really need that half-chapter drama. Still, good to see Sig is back (and how handsome he is now), and we'll probably set off to Vinland next chapter. I wonder how Thorfinn's new policy will play out...
