( the sudden change from one territory to another was jarring. nikolai wasn't a particularly huge fan of thorne but it was what he'd become accustomed to so deciding on a change, wanted or not, was still throwing him.

solvunn reminded him a little of some of the outer edges of ravka, untouched by the goings on in the castle and open and spacious. there's still plenty of settlements and such but it's nothing like ravka, nothing like thorne.

nikolai isn't one to be idle so he's been trying his best to help out where he can. whether that means ferrying supplies, helping people, repairing things or, today, trying his hand at farming, he's doing it.

is he good at it? well, that's still up in the air. right now, he's trying his damndest because he knows he has an audience but he's not paying attention to her. he's busy, shovel in hand, trying to work the dirt.

the king of ravka, trying to do...something. hm.

it's the attempt that counts, right? )
