Several weeks had passed since Berengar first visited the Kalmar Union. The day after returning from his fishing trip with King Alvar, Berengar and the Scandinavian king signed a non-aggression pact between Austria and the Kalmar Union into effect.
The two men also signed a comprehensive trade agreement designed to bring wealth to both countries via open trade of raw materials. As such, Berengar was able to acquire raw materials like timber and furs at a reasonable price.
After returning home, Berengar found himself fulfilling his promise to his dear lover. Linde monopolized a week's worth of Bernegar's time, refusing to allow him to work during that period. As such, he spent the days with his beautiful young lover. When they weren't making love, they were spending time as a family with their children.
