He would soak up Caelia's words. A thoughtful look entered the albino man's eyes, wondering how loyalty had been given to the High King when Ardyn had only called on him once. The resulting bout had made Torben the winner, and the settler had assumed Ardyn's pride was hurt in the process. Losing to an inexperienced fighter like Torben. "Seems a bit strange t' me" he finally decided to admit, shuffling his large paws "to borrow another's culture and religion. Change it a bit, especially..."

He frowned. The Viking culture was different than the Celtic. It seemed an uncomfortable hodgepodge of things to Torben. Slapping on Valhalla because it 'sounded good' and had the same concept they wanted to inspire. Valhalla was different than the land of the Celts. Even their gods and afterlife were different. Why give Valhalla Celtic rank names? Why give Celtic origins a Viking name? It seemed very disrespectful to Torben. But he kept it to himself, mostly.

"Aye, but it seems a good concept." He seemed awkward and uncomfortable.
