(It was in fact a well known pratice at the begining of the medieval age, and even later on. It depended on the King and form they praticed religion though.

However this would not be a fair compariason.

Nords are the more or less equivelent of Viking and other nordic people, it was quite commen for vikings to take more than one wife. Besides this Virginity wasnt that much of a big deal to the vikings, and weoman were more or less equel in this right, although they could deny themselve, many would like to have a child with the Jarl of there district, in a hope that it could become a Jarl himself or that he would grow up to be a great warrior.

Raig is an honorable person, he sees no reason why Sysene deserves a second chance. He doesnt want her killed while unconciunse but he would perfer they leave her here to destiny. He also doesnt respect Bjolmar what so ever, he likes Tegan attitude, and Saga, and Scatach. So hes more inclined to listen to them, however they share his attidue over Sysene so that wouldnt happen)

(I think you made the wrong argument the entire time, If you wanted to save her to the side you should have said ´´Guys lets take her as a hostage´´ or something like that. Tegan would agree with that, she may be a little sceptical but she could be convinced that it was just buisness)

´´If I couldnt contain myself, I would have already killed her or you for that matter. Im certain that atleast on Argonian in the village will hate her, and as soon as we move on. He will convince the others to kill her, or most likely torture her´´ Raig smiled ´´Sure some may try and protect her, but tell me Nord´´ He smiled ´´Didnt your race wipe out the Snow Elves?´´

(Raig is quite intellegent, he use to be noble in hammerfell) (I am not unfamiliar with the Norweigan/Northern European practice of nobles taking the bride from the groom or of Nordic peoples taking multiple wives, but both were a very uncommon practice by the time the 1400s-1500s (I would assume that is about when TES would be placed in a real timeline). Perhaps this was something acknowledged by the Nedes or old Nords, but probably not the Nords of the Fourth Era. However, I will abide.)

(So Bjolmar showed mercy and Raig doesn't respect him? If he's truly the 'everyone deserves a second chance' type, or even the 'honor and glory' type, he'd understand why Bjolmar would feel obligated not to leave behind someone who he lied to and ultimately betrayed. Bjolmar will not stoop so low, even though his hatred of the Empire runs deep.)

(For all I know, Tegan very well could've seen that as a terrible excuse. I don't have ESP.)

(A werewolf Redguard who is honor-bound and believes everyone deserves a second chance, who happened to be a noble at one point? C'mon, Maxi. Mak may not entirely be honor-bound and his mercy has limits, but so far Raig's being painted as a Mak clone, in my eyes, at least.)

"And your race wiped out the Left-Handed elves, cur," Bjolmar answered, seething with fury at what seemed to him like racism. "I would watch your tongue before I cut it out. "

"If I may interject, how about you both shut up, get your act together, and get moving so we don't end up with spears in our backs?" Rowan asked, about to just bolt for the mines and leave the others to their own devices.
