Hogun sells Olafson Rock

EVENT:

 Hogun sells Olafson Rock

Isegrim abandoning it, gives it to Hogun. Isegrim bans Hogun from the clan before before he is made aware of the fact.

Hogun, his brother spoke for the first time. “What Burg do you want to return to? You left the rock and declared to be the master of this! You abandoned Olafson rock and you went so far as to ask the Elders to rename this one after the Old Patriarch died.”

Father shrugged.” So what? I am the clan chief and do as I please! You are but a second born living on the coat tails of your wife!”

“Not quite. It is true we second born have little rights on this world where the first born is exalted, but that does not mean we have no rights. You abandoned the traditional home of your ancestors. You have not sold it, given it to someone or maintained one single guard there. By our laws and verified by the Elders I am now the owner of the rock.”

Father gasped in total surprise and it took him several moments to digest the news. “You are still Olafson and I am the clan Leader. I order you to return the Burg into my possession!”

“Oh I would do that, but you see I sold it and this is no longer possible!”

Father fumed.” We are brothers by blood only, but enemies to the death from now on! You are expelled from the Olafson clan !”

Hogun shrugged.” You see how much that hurts me! As for your threat, I may not be as vicious as you but I take your challenge anytime you dare!”

“Who did you sell it too? For how much! I want that money!”

“I am no longer of the Olafson clan and therefore not obliged to follow your orders or tell you anything.” Hogun laughed. “You made a fool out of yourself again! Do you know how much even the smallest piece of land is worth on a world without land where real estate almost never changes hands?”

Grandfather laughed too. “He does not know such things he rather takes things by scheme, violence or marriage. What you called a worthless pile of rock before witnesses many times including Elders. Yet the Elhir clan paid credits and Iridium making your brother a very wealthy man! Who is of course honorably welcomed in the Ragnarsson clan !
