King Askild's men descended from the hill and slaughtered every person here but one, and that was the Viking that begged for his life.
It was only fair that not all warriors would be willing to give up their lives for their king, the fact that they were assigned such a task showed that they did not hold any importance in the overall war.
"I-I can help you! Please spare me." King Askild was disgusted by this disloyal warrior but he knew it would be foolish to kill him based on that fact alone, not until they have gotten information out of him.
"How can you help us?" Asger questioned the man pinned to the ground, he was hit in multiple places and Asger knew from the extent of the damage that the man received that there was no saving him but the man was unaware of the severity of it.
"I will tell you only if you promise to let me go," The man pleaded and Asger gave him his word.
And the man began to spill all the information he had on him.
