| | Eivor heard a bard singing. |
| :'''A Bard's Lament''':<br />''O, yet another day! What a sunny day!<br />O, the birds are tweeting, and more people I am meeting!<br />So I sing another happy song.<br /><br />Another day comes, and o, the rain triumphs!<br />The frogs are croaking, and I am still boasting!<br />Of others in a happy song.<br /><br />But for all that I sing, of kings and their sins,<br />My song remains unsung, and my purse still lacks a win.'' | | *'''[[Berk|Berk the Bard]]:''' ''Heroes aplenty, warriors so many, but most walk about with heads that are empty. Would a soul in these lands, pay heed to a man, who wanders this world without a clan? Hey! You! My eyes and soul do not deceive me! You are the [[Wolf]]-Kissed, are you not? Come, come!'' |
| | She approached him. |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''Greetings, bard.'' |
| | *'''Berk the Bard:''' ''That face, that scowl... yes, indeed, you must be the Wolf-Kissed! Your fame and generosity are well-known to me!'' |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''You have a flatterer's tongue, bard. But how do you know me?'' |
| | *'''Berk the Bard:''' ''The deeds of the great are a bard's stock in trade. The brave are wealthy, the wealthy are brave. So it goes. How about it, Eivor the Wanderer? Part with a queen's ransom and live on in immortal song?'' |
| | <tabber> |
| | |-|A fair trade. (295)= |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''[[Silver]] comes and silver goes, but the fame of the great endures.'' |
| | *'''Berk the Bard:''' ''Both wise and generous! Truly you are history's mightiest champion. Now, hold tight while my muse inspires me. |
| | He began singing. |
| | *'''Berk the Bard:''' ''From beyond the whale-roads, from history unknown,<br>did the [[Norse people|Norse]] take a stand, and now all must atone.<br>Now comes Eivor of the [[Raven]]s, with the [[sun]] for eyes,<br>trailing a river of blood, enough to paint the skies!<br>Succumb to your fate with a kiss, a blade to your throat, the wolf's fangs to your shins.<br>For the one blessing and the one curse, is to meet the Wolf-Kissed!'' |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''Your {{Wiki|kenning}}s are weak. However, you make up for it with your clever tongue.'' |
| | *'''Berk the Bard:''' ''{{'}}Tis the tale of a bard such as I! We give and give and get nothing back. So it goes. Farewell, generous champion!'' |
| | |-|I'll waste no coin on you.= |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''I heard you sing, bard. Your songs aren't worth a [[copper]] bit.'' |
| | *'''Berk the Bard:''' ''Frugal and rude! You're even less fun than you look.'' |
| | He began singing. |
| | *'''Berk the Bard:''' ''There was a cheap little Norse. Stinking of [[ale]],<br>with a face like a [[horse]], and a pony for a tail.<br>What was the name of this hideous [[Wild boar|boar]]?<br>To speak it brings shame, but it's Eivor!<br>Eivor! Always second, never the first.<br>Made to do a master's bidding, a servant cursed!<br>Alas ends the tale of Eivor the Boar,<br>the Cheap, the Second! Ei-ei-ei-vor! Oink!'' |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''I could kill you with a single swing, but I'd rather not stain my weapon.'' |
| | *'''Berk the Bard:''' ''I merely sung the truth! Your brutish threats hold no power over a bard like me.'' |
| | |-|I will be back.= |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''Let me find a fuller purse someday, and perhaps I shall return.'' |
| | *'''Berk the Bard:''' ''The world weeps at its loss! Go forth and plunder, so that all may hear your praises properly sung." |
| | Eventually, Eivor returned to the bard. |
| | *'''Eivor:''' ''Greetings, bard.'' |
| | *'''Berk the Bard:''' ''Ah, Eivor of the [[Raven Clan|Ravens]]! Have you changed your mind about living forever in song? Bit of coin for a soulful tune?'' |
