And so, also, must he take you.”īranded as the foreigner they need to succeed, Ibn is enlisted as they set out on their conquest by land and sea to Venden, the land of King Hrothgar. This is fitting, and he must also take eleven warriors with him. Herger to Ibn: “Buliwyf is called by the gods to leave this place and swiftly, putting behind him all his cares and concerns, to act as a hero to repel the menace of the North. Regardless of his feelings towards them, an old soothsayer whom the Vikings call the angel of death, cast the bones and warns the band that they will fail unless they are accompanied on their journey by a 13th warrior and one who is not from the North. Ibn is appalled by Viking customs - the wanton sexuality of their pale, angular women, their disregard for cleanliness, and their cold-blooded human sacrifices.
