to the Gepids who had accompanied us to the farm, and then, on the return trip to the mouth of the Wisla River. I thought that was a good idea, but I wanted to leave the Gepids and seek my family to the east. Perhaps I would find new villages to search in the east, where the Venethi (Sporoi) villages were established. There were many more villages than I could count. The number was daunting. We could spend many months, even years, searching for Anselm. Perhaps Eiriks would escort us again, but I knew of no one else. We would need a small band of men to help us. We decided to search for Anselm on the way to find our families and villages.
After a few days’ ride, we returned to the Gepids’ camp. We retold the events that led to our discovery of Gerulf, and Anselm’s horse, along with Anselm’s fate, and Saskia’s ax. They thought that we did well to find all these pieces of information. Anselm’s horse was handed over to Rochus’ son, and he immediately wanted to sit on its back, held by Rochus,. It was a joyous evening of firelight and music, for the Gepids loved to dance and sing.
