Legend

The great chiefs have gathered together to discuss war. You are hoping to convince the other chiefs to join together as allies, and so you intend to impress them.

Filling your chieftain drinking horn, you raise it high and declare the many great deeds of your people. Soon you are expounding, too, the great deeds of the other tribes. Before long, all are merry and acting as brothers and sisters. It is good and you drink deep from your horn before placing it on your horn holder.
