A Final Challenge

---

 

---

 As the everlasting winter of the North grew colder, the skies darkened. A storm drew near, horns rang out from the northern marches, and an army’s worth of ravens had begun to decorate the sky above, like a scattering of black across the clouds. This, as it happened, was an omen accompanied by a message, for in each bird’s possession was a copy of the same note.

To the Nordmenn,

    Many years have passed since our last altercation, a decade and a half to be precise. In that time, my people have become quite fond of their colony, as you might call it. For quite some time, the conflict between us had come to an end. Now, however, matters have changed. Our seers received, some few years ago, visions from the gods- visions which, they say, were a demand for destruction. Your destruction. As is our duty as sworn servants of the Chosen, we must answer that demand. And so, we have spent our time preparing, marshaling our forces. We will march on your city in one half-year’s time. I suggest readiness, for your sake. There is honor in valorous defeat.

Signed,

Vikne Kjeldsdóttir of Brimnesskógar

[Hyperdron 290]

A gnarled figure, fully clad in raven attire, stares from an eyeless mask as the sun sets upon the Highlander walls beyond. Not that they could see the walls from where they were; but they knew full well where that bastion stood - had stood for so many years. A grating creak groans from behind that mask, a maddening smile hidden from all but their own awareness.

 

It had been far too long since they had last witnessed a prophecy fulfilled. This time, they would make sure to savour it.
