Re: Setting sail
Gultungas breaks out in song o'er the din of breaking waves, the
lyrics are well timed to the beat of the longships drum . . .
"Hel demandingly screams
more blood,
more blood!
Stridesman rally
without hesitation to their mighty sea steed
the Heart of Oak.
The Heart of Oaks Godi bellows deeply
--Norsemen to your oars sally forth
and briskly push off.
Stout Norseman oars heartily stroke
with shoulders hard put to it
and brawny backs rhythmically bent in enduring cadence.
Stroking e'vr faster
with each thump resounding of the drum,
its vibrations the Heart of Oaks soul beats deeply.
The Norsemens sleek crafts most sturdy prow
courses through tumultuous cresting waves most high
e'vr faster to the drums quickening beat.
From our foes danegeld we forcefully seek,
to refuse sheer folly,
we go beserk.
Demanding lifesblood as payment most fair,
plunder, pillaging, rewards galore
with bloodied swords raised on high o'er our fallen foes."
. . . so on and so forth . . .
OCC: The crewmen won't recognize the rowing song beings that Gultunga just
created it . . . they would be able to chime in once he begins repeating the
verses.
