Soft small hands grasped his and beat his strong shoulders. Erbrand let go of Scyld’s throat. Ginna and Frodides knelt beside the Scyld. He was not moving.

“Fool!” Frodides said. “You will hang for this. You will hang!”

Heh, I think I have read this passage like three or four times but only now I see that the knife is Scyrr's... The next sentence after the mentioning of the blade is saying that Erbrand "struck relentlessly and hard" - and then Scyrr was not moving any more - and it was said he would hang for this... I somehow thought it all the time that the knife was Erbrand's, even if the text clerly states it the other way around.

Blah. My bad.

Okay. You guys continue from here (I need to go to sleep like now and have no time to get online in 24 hours) and we''ll think about what to do with the discrepancy in the day after tomorrow or during the weekend?

If Nerindel comes forwards let her decide whether Aedhel is trying to help someone who has been near suffication or one with an open wound on the throat?
