章 250: Heroine Chapter: Any price. [1/2]

Chapter POV: Liv Ivaldi

___

Men and women were different. That was a fact. Anyone who thought otherwise was a fool. Ten men and one woman would make one child in a year, the reverse would make ten.

Since time immemorial, clans have measured their power and might by their people. My home, the Throne of the North, also followed this rule. Erick Odinson, the man I considered my father, was the sole Revenant of the kingdom and served as its king.

Under him were fourteen clans of various specialties and strengths. Since having more people translated into power, polygamy was the norm. Reapers never died of old age or disease, only of steel and fire.

Since the female Reapers were not very fertile, it was common practice for the men of the Reapers to take as many wives as they were able to support. It was the responsibility of each male in the north to impregnate as many women as he could.
