As the men exclaim at the Bloodshed infront of them.They feel sick in their stomach looking at the chunky remains of the enemy.
Gorgo-*kneeling beside Bjorn* I'll be dammed his ribs are exposed,his leg is all fucked up,His arms have bones coming out of them.Yet this fucker is still not kicking it,If that doesn't show what a monster he is then I don't know what.
Thork-*signalling medics*Yeah what a man.*muttering*what a sick joke...
As the medics take him off on a board.The men stare at his broken body.Remarking what could have done that to him.
Gorgo-Well Thork ,orders?
Thork-*snapping out of his thoughts*Yes find supplys and you follow me.
They walk off into the forts main hold,The halls baren and musty.As they continue down the halls cautiously.
Gorgo-So what's up with the look?
Thork-What look.*saying aggressively*
Gorgo-You know that look whenever you see Bjorn.Almost kind like you hate his guts but love what he can do.
Thork-...
Gorgo-Fine if you dont wanna talk about it.But just so you know men have been noticing it saying all kinds of slander for hating such a warrior.
Thork-He's no warrior!*barking the words out*
He's a monster who just so happens to be a man.I don't know how you all can praise a monster*spitting*Me I love what he does,could wipe an entire army if he would wear armor and not be such an idiot on the battle feild.Yet...*heavy sigh* I am a little jealous that my plans dont mean much when we could just send one man to raid.All those countless hours of studying and perfecting gone to waste.
Gorgo-Hmmm maybe but he still risks his life to fight for us.Leading always headfirst probably saving countless casualties.Like when he saved us back at Ranton.I can never forget when I first saw it how IT charged at the Raven clans 2nd finest force,The Black Raven knight's.

FLASH BACK
2 YEARS AGO
Krak-oooom!!
The lightning splitting the sky as we approach the fort.I look over to my right to see Bjorn staring at the Fortress.
Bjorn-It's is big huh.
Gorgo-Looks average to me.*small grin*
Thork-MEN TODAY WE RIDE UPON THEIR GATES,THE GODS WATCH TODAY AS WE RIDE!FIGHT HARD AND LONG TILL YOUR ARMS DROP!
The rumbling of our army's footsteps as we charge the fort.
Dunnng!Dunnng!Dunnng!
The forts bells ring in alert as suddenly it seems like the fort is awake.
I reach the gate entering with a few other's before it closes.I begin fighting my way slowly reaching the gate lever.As I pull it down I hear the gate rise and The Storm army ride in.
2 HOURS LATER
Gorgo-HRA!!
I swing my hammer splitting the skull of two people with it.
My arms are so heavy,my legs are shaking beneath me.Why are there so many here I can hardly stand yet I look across and see Bjorn.Roaring his armor stained red and his axe driping with blood.Yet he moves as if he just started the battle.No... more than that he is killing men easily.
What strength he has!!
?-INCOMING!!!!
Huh I look around.Slowly hearing the roar of catapult fire.
I get down as a huge boulder flys over me crashing into some men.
Fuck!This isn't looking good.I make my way to Bjorn who's in a daze.
Gorgo-We have to get out of here!They'll crush us.
He nods and we run over to the gate gathering a small group on our way.
We reach the gate and find that it has been blocked by a boulder.A few men trying to move it but to no avail.
Bjorn-Get out the way!*muttering something*
Gorgo-It's no use you c-*begins to move the boulder,straining greatly as it rolls*cant...
What the?!Is he even a man that boulder was giant.It completely blocked the Fortress gate!
Gorgo-Let's goo!
We begin to hurry out the gate.
Everyone-Whaaa...
At least 2,000 men,dozens of seige weapons.All of them Reinforcments for the fort.
They begin marching towards the fort.Rows of men making the ground rumble as they aproach.
My heart drops as I know this means death.If we stay inside we'll be crushed,If we leave killed. A few of the men sit on the ground giving up all hope of living.
Fuck that I rather die in battle.
Just as I begin to run I hear someone call me.I turn around to see Bjorn.A worried look on his face yet his demeanour is brave.
He stands tall and drops his weapon to the ground.
Bjorn-*seriously*Gather all the men and find somewhere to hide.I can do it.
I knew what he meant and even though it sounded impossible,I listened instinctively.
Gorgo-*picking up the men*Get up! and find the others.
*Cracking Noises*
huh...My eyes couldn't believe what I was seeing.As I saw his body morphing,stretching the groans of pain.
He turns into something out of tale.The size of two men with the muscles of one hundred.
As the terrifying beast leaps into the army.Jumping over 40 yards away.Roaring.
The sight should have been terrifying...yet it was something so legendary I couldn't help but stand in awe as It tore men apart.Destroying siege engines in seconds.He right then and there was the embodiment of destruction and terror.
I lead the men around the fort as the army focuses on the monster attacking them.
Gornan-What the fuck is that?*pointing to Bjorn*
Thork-I dont know?
Gorgo-Im sure he will tell us all soon.
Thork-huh?Whatever lets just get away from here.
We just barely over a hundred men made it from that battle then.An insane hike back to our camp.Dozens injured badly.Yet we all pulled together and pushed through.
Some thought the battle campaign was over after that.Losing a few thousand in a fort raid was always bad.Yet there were thousands more ready to die for their land.
So we brought the Storm army back together.Course the Jarls riches helped persuade many to joining up.
It was not until a month later when I saw Bjorn again.He just appeared at camp one day.In tattered clothes,his skin stained a deep red with blood.His hair with strands of black hair.
He looked monstrous,somehow he grew a whole head in height probably nearing 7 foot tall.His arms thick and muscular with wrists thicker than ankles.He had gone through an unnatural change.One that terrified me.
That day we learned what he truly was...A monster.Yet we accepted him as he was.Because it was natural to do so,most were confused on what he was saying.But soon we just kept on going.
