“Hallvard asked Gunnar if he had a mind to go to see Earl Hacon.”
with Gunnar of Lithend · weight 3 · ch. 28–31
“Gunnar spoke little about it, but yet said more unlikely things might happen; and about spring he went over to Bergthorsknoll to find out from Njal whether he thought it a wise step in him to go abroad.”
“Gunnar took Tofi on board, and said to Kolskegg and Hallvard, "Now we will hold our course for the north lands".”
“Gunnar said that was near his heart, "for now I am somewhat proved, but then I was not tried at all when thou badest me do this before".”
with Oliver · weight 2 · ch. 29–29
“Oliver asks about his voyage, and Hallvard says that Gunnar wishes to go a-warfaring to gather goods for himself.”
“Then Gunnar and Hallvard went before Oliver, and thanked him; he bade them fare warily for the sake of those brothers.”
