As Erik remembered the old times, he told the story-
"The day I met her, it was the most awkward day ever in my life. I have just moved from Vanaheim to Niflheim, when the spring there has just began. I was fourteen at the time, had blood boiling all over my body. And...I hated my father at that time.
Before the day I met Gunhild, he gave me an earful for not helping him with his works. I told him some really bad things that day. I said a lot of swear words, I swore at my mother because all I knew that she left us. Dad became furious despite being an old man. He beat me with a cane he used to walk with since he didn't have one leg. "If you fear me, get the hell outta here!"
I didn't eat or take a shower and I slept all day. The next day, dad woke me up. He told me to get up since we have been bought by a noble family named the Galatis family.
