Viking

The Sun is rising. Our boat glides silently over the dark water. In the distance, I see land. The village we are about to raid comes into view. My father, our leader, stands next to me. I have never left my home before, but I am ready. I am a warrior. Soon I will do battle. But something is not right. I look at the small village on the rocky shore. A strange feeling sweeps over me. I know this place. I have been here before. But how can that be…

In Viking, a young warrior tells his story and prepares to join the men of his tribe in battle. But his family hides a terrible secret. A secret that the young Viking is about to discover.
