Saga of Gunnlaug the Worm-Tongue and Raven the Skald
Author: last_name: Anonymous

Year: 1875

A tale from Iceland, 800 years ago.<br>
In a dream of quarrels and death<br>
The birth of fair Helga is told<br>
Cross the north seas ventured for fame<br>
At the call of kings, hearth bereft<br>
Wounded pride, spawn'd of a sensed slight<br>
When tongues fail, sharper blades prevail<br>
Falcon soothes the cloak wrapt wound<br>
Fair one pines and fades from the light. - <i>Summary by Fritz</i>
