How does your magic work?” Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd slashed his sword past the misshapen horseshoes, and they both jerked to a stop.

Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd had dismounted and was using his sword to whack away the objects that the domovoi threw at him.

Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z A shadow passed over the cellar door as Sigurd stood before it.

Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z The crowd stood, silent, watching Sigurd dragged out of town by his own horse. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z She kills herself, praying that her body shall be laid on the funeral pyre with Sigurd’s. Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes 1942-01-01T00:00:00Z It reminded her of Sigurd, and Håkon, and the way it had felt to stab each of them.

Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z The Varangian flicked his sword at Kin, and the horseshoe spun back around, like they were tethered to rope that Sigurd had caught on his sword. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd managed to keep his grip on Anya while he swung at the house spirit. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Tangled in each other, they couldn’t escape from the tarp’s canvas hold fast enough, and Sigurd wrapped them back up in it like a picnic lunch, forming a bag around them. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Before the axe could make contact, a whiplike willow branch smacked the weapon out of Sigurd’s hand.

Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z She didn’t want Mama knowing about the weapons, or about the way she still thought about Sigurd all the time, so she kept them at Kin’s. Anya and the Nightingale 2020-11-10T00:00:00Z “That ent important! Little boy, ye tell yer da not to challenge him. I know enough to know fool magic when I see it, but Sigurd’s strong. He won’t fall for it again.” Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z In the next second, the horseshoe slipped out of Yedsha’s slimy hand and rocketed at Sigurd’s face. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z But the barbed wrapping wasn’t only for weight; Sigurd had knotted and arranged it so it made a net around the outside, to prevent exactly what Anya was attempting. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z A ball of water shot out of the river like a cannonball, and just before it hit Sigurd, it crunched into ice. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Anya’s stomach clenched as Sigurd’s bloody face flashed behind her eyes. Anya and the Nightingale 2020-11-10T00:00:00Z Ivan moved to the side, arcing around so he wasn’t a still target for Sigurd’s mounting fury. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd is the most famous of Norse heroes; his story is largely that of the hero of the Nibelungenlied, Siegfried. Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes 1942-01-01T00:00:00Z “I used my water magic like I did when Sigurd threw us in the river.” Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd grabbed the domovoi, his giant fist squeezing the house spirit hard enough for Anya to hear a squelch and a crunch. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z “I was so worried! After Sigurd chased us...” Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z “Varangians are good, ye hear? But Sigurd is as dark a man as can walk this earth. He’s mad, but a cunning mad. The kind of mad that’ll leave nothing but ashes where he goes.” Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd’s ghost leered at her from the back of her mind. Anya and the Nightingale 2020-11-10T00:00:00Z Sigurd lifted a foot and kicked Kin in the chest. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd released the reins and tried to step away from the horse, but he stopped short. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z As the dagger flashed in the light, something hit the side of Sigurd’s head. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Anya nodded and stumbled back from the railing as tools flew off the walls, rocketing for Sigurd. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z He balled the horseshoes up and threw them at Sigurd. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Anya felt much less brave when Sigurd was glowering right at her, but she didn’t want him to know that. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Anya startled away from it, and the domovoi vanished from the railing as Sigurd rode his giant horse into the barn. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z She wondered if Sigurd recognized her as the same child who had thrown the horseshoe at his face. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd stumbled to the side, his swing going wide and slicing nothing but air. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z When they got to her turnoff, Anya had just finished telling Kin about how Lena had helped her kill Sigurd. Anya and the Nightingale 2020-11-10T00:00:00Z She wasn’t sure what would be worse when they reached it: finding Sigurd and fighting him, or finding nothing at all. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z I have not gone to it, however, for my story, but to the Elder Edda, where the love and death of Sigurd and Brynhild and Gudrun are the subject of a number of the poems. Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes 1942-01-01T00:00:00Z “This is none of your business,” Sigurd said to the man. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z “But then I got free from that master. The others in the town became my friends. I made a name for myself. I was a great blacksmith. And that’s how I met Sigurd.” Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z He hooked the toe of his boot under Sigurd’s chest and kicked him onto his back. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z “Oh no, you don’t,” Babulya growled, and she directed another branch to wrap around Sigurd’s chest. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Anya couldn’t even scream, she just made a small choking sound as Sigurd yanked her to him. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd turned and dragged her away from the barn. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Håkon was secured in a net on the ground before Sigurd, eyes shut. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z “I didn’t know you’d be there. I thought you were dead. But I knew Sigurd would be there.” Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z The swaying of his walk alerted them to movement, and a moment later, Sigurd dropped the bag on the ground. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z It bounced off the back of his head as she yelled, “Hey! Sigurd!” Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd could manipulate magic threads with his sword. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd spends three nights there with her, but he places his sword between them in the bed. Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes 1942-01-01T00:00:00Z Its other end was attached to the tarp Ivan had been caught in, and Sigurd let the tarp down without an ounce of consideration for the boy within it. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd’s icy eyes ticked over each of the people facing him. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z “My apologies,” Dobrynya called, loud enough to drown out Sigurd’s curses. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd whipped the sword hard at Kin, and the horseshoes rocketed at him. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z “You used it to fight Sigurd. I saw you!” Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Anya screamed, and Sigurd grabbed her by the back of her dress. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z The willow’s unharmed branches snaked toward Sigurd, keeping a distance from him but ready to whip at him if needed. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z He seized it just as Sigurd dropped down, tearing greenery from him as he fell. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Do you know how the seer told Sigurd to find the dragon?” Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z “Now, power doesn’t always mean size. Look at you! You’re very small, and you were still powerful enough to stand up to Sigurd!” Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z She wasn’t sure what exactly had caused it, but she knew Sigurd had done something to Kin’s forge. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z She swallowed hard, and then the domovoi appeared in the air over Sigurd’s head. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd went about his business as though he didn’t have a flailing child attached to him. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z She didn’t want to tell him that she didn’t think a good arm would make a difference against Sigurd. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z The domovoi vanished and then reappeared a moment later on the other side of Sigurd’s head, where he resumed his attack. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Kin’s fingers struggled in the air, and whenever he would grab hold of a thread, Sigurd would swing his sword at Kin with a snarl.

Anya and the Nightingale 2020-11-10T00:00:00Z Sigurd tied another barbed rope on the outside of the tarp before Anya realized what he was doing. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Or did he still think of Sigurd the way Anya did?

Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd punched his other arm out the side, grabbed handfuls of willow branches, and ripped them away from his chest. Anya and the Dragon 2019-09-24T00:00:00Z Sigurd might have needed a special place to do his bloodletting.
