While Ragnar was preparing to liquidate the West Saxon holdings in Nottingham and march on the Castle, Gyda was back in City Titan managing the corporate headquarters, including herself, Magnus, and Elfrida.
She was also keeping a close eye on Eadwig, who had begun to act out; the longer the hostile takeover went on, the more impatient the boy became.
At the moment, Eadwig, Elfrida, and Gyda were sitting at the mahogany dining table in the Governor's Mansion enjoying a breakfast of imported pastries and strong coffee.
As an act of disrespect to Ragnar and to assert his "authority" as Figurehead while the Director was away, Eadwig sat in Ragnar's high-backed leather chair at the head of the table, which caused Gyda to lash out at the youth instantly.
"Mr. Eadwig, that seat is reserved for the Chairman of the Board and belongs to the Director of the Iron Empire! You should show some respect to corporate hierarchy and sit elsewhere!"
