Of the battle of Llanwyd and Klarnus, and the death of Olaric
Now when Llanwyd came to the wastes before the fortress of Medregil, he found before the gates a barren land, filled with ash and devoid of all growing things. Nonetheless, he came to the gates without challenge, for if the spies of Klarnus saw him, then the more did they fear his wrath, and out of fear hid themselves and reported him not, for though they knew not his name, they had heard of his deeds and his hatred of the Troll-Horde. And so it was that though he came boldly to the gate, he spoke no word until he stood before the very ramparts of Medregil and under the shadows of the Black Fells, and no challenge was raised against him.
As the bleak sun raised itself to the head of the sky, Llanwyd suddenly drew his sword, and even in that barren place the sapphire on its hilt shone like the brightest of stars.
“Klarnus!†he cried in a loud voice. “Klarnus the sorcerer, abhorred by all the world! Come forth, Klarnus, that I may slay thee!â€
For a long while the wastes were silent, save for the whistling of the wind. Then with a horrific grinding noise the vast gates of Medregil’s outer keep opened slowly, and forth came a single rider, on a black armoured horse. He too was armoured, in a suit of armour once iron-grey but now blackened by the soot of Klarnus’s forges. He approached Llanwyd without fear and when he stood a bowshot away, dismounted and spoke in a cold voice, filled with malice and devoid of any mercy.
“Who comes to summon Klarnus the Great in such base fashion?†he asked.
“I am Llanwyd of Campana, and I seek the head of Klarnus, and my prize!â€
“What is your prize, mortal?â€
DO you do this kind of thing often? It's quite good Also as said above you should definitely take a look at The Mabinogion, that is if you haven't alreadly.

I wonder which worms you mean. I remember playing worms on PS1 when I was younger, are these worms of any relation?

Whilst I did think twice about posting, during which time I considered the end result of last time I replied to a New Dep thread, I am NOT being "falsely naive"! Pereat cogitium.

Am I even allowed to ask what this end result was, or is that better left undisturbed?
