Kathryn's Love Part Iv

Gundar Nills Sails Into the Night! Part Four A lone Viking ship With Black Sails, Pounding the waves In the midst of natures fury. The worse the weather, The more the Gods Looked on with Favor. Gunder Nills, the Viking King Hated and loved This journey. Everything about it Was wrong. The wrong time of year, The winter storms, He did not care, A Welshland Prince Had killed his son, A headless corpse Returned. Revenge fueled his lust, Pride drove him into Madness. As Gunder Nills Lamented the loss Of his first born Son. Waves crashing over the bow, King Gundar did cry. Revenge is mine! Killing will to be done, Screamed Gunder Nills, the Viking King. His Grey blonde mane Matted his skull From the salty spray That night. Damn you all, You motherless sons. Row, he yelled. Row, he bellowed From the helm Of his Viking Ship. A Demon he was, Crazed with mourning And loss. His Gods listened That night to Gunder Nills, The Viking King Driven Mad by Sadness. The Sail's filled and the Viking ship Pushed Southward Under gale force winds, With Gunder Nills At the helm. Into the blinding Winds and rain.. Black Sails Of warring furled The return of The hated Viking King, Gundar Nills.. Two hundred Ships he Commanded.
