[What Cisco says seemed to sober Ragnar. It could mean one of many things had happened, but the one he immediately thought of was the worst case scenario - his people seemed died off and were forgotten, their religion and culture destroyed somehow.
Cisco's question seemed like a welcome distraction, even if Ragnar had to blink a few times and force the thoughts of his people from his mind.]
This place is very different. Very strange. The machines are amazing... and confusing. There are so many of them, it is hard to keep track.
Sometimes, I think I must have died, but it is also obvious that that is not the case. [He opened his mouth as if there was quite a bit more to say, but ended up just stopping there and pulling the blanket that was slung around his shoulders a little tighter. He had concerns about this place, especially about dying in this place and therefore not being sent to Valhalla. His daughter was here, his daughter who would die before he saw her again. And on top of all of that, he wanted to have more children and had met an amazing woman here already. What would happen if they had children in this place? Would they be trapped here? Taken away from them? Before tonight he'd been mostly trying to avoid thinking about any of this.]
