But when Thorstein came home, he sent next day a house-carle out to Leiru-brook
to bid Steinar move house beyond Borgar-hraun,
else would he take advantage of this against Steinar when he had more power on his side,
'and you will then,'
said he,
'have no choice of migration.'
So Steinar prepared to go out to Snæfells-strand,
and there he set up his household at a place called Ellida.
And thus ended the dealings between him and Thorstein Egil's son.
Thorgeir Blund dwelt at Anabrekka.
He proved a bad neighbour to Thorstein in every way that he could do so.
On one occasion, when Egil and Thorstein met,
they talked much about Thorgeir Blund their kinsman,
and they both agreed about him.
Then Egil sang:

'Steinar my word erewhile
Stript of his fruitful acres:
So did I hope to help
The heir of Geir and Kettle.
False, though he promised fair,
My sister's son hath failed me.
Blund now (whereat I wonder)
Withholds him not from ill.'

Thorgeir Blund left Anabrekka, and went south to Floka-dale;
for Thorstein saw he could not get on with him,
and yet wished to be forbearing.
Thorstein was a man with no trickery, just,
and never aggressive on others,
but he held his own if others attacked him.
But it proved disastrous to most to match their force with him.
Odd was then head-man in Borgar-firth, south of White-river.
He was temple-priest, and ruled over that temple,
to which all paid tribute within Skards-heath.
