Lief
In my mind the salt air is strong again and I row the boat with others
toward that land where we take up sword and axe against those living there.
We have done it before and such prizes reward us greatly. Lief leads us all
and we follow him in adventure. Our dragon breaks the waves before us.
My shield rests to my left on edge of the side's rim. It's secured between
double boards and shows its face to wind and sea. The sail flaps itself in
the wind with its flame breathing monster talking to us.I have double horn
helmet and carry sword at my side. I follow Lief to where Odin leads him.
The salt air is strong in my mind just now.. Would to god I could follow
Lief again.
