CONFUSED VIKING by Granny Annie
The Viking King Ragnar awoke in a daze. A cloud of dust settled around him. What had happened to this mighty warrior? He felt like the mischievous god Loki had slapped him in the face with a wet fish. If we told him the truth it would shame our mighty king, I bowed my head and wept. King Ragnar shook his head over and over until he awakened clearly. He demanded to know what had happened. It would be impossible to survive if we told him he had simply slipped and fallen. We agreed to tell him he had won a mighty war with a berserker who had appeared out of the woods. I didn't know what else to do. Our brave king was happy to have defeated a giant.
Well done!
