It was a fight like never was seen before..
The two fighters, Herne the Hunter and Sigfried the Fearless face to face, determined, ready to prove who's the best, waiting for the start signal.
Even it was decided Freya will give the start signal, it was Gundrun who did it. Sigfried attack Herne in force while the Hunter still fix the beautiful Freya waiting for the signal. Took by surprise the famous warrior manage to hold the ground with some difficulty in front of an unleashed Sigfried, almost certain about the victory.
But after a few minutes, Herne the Hunter took the initiative in front of an overconfident Sigfried and push him back. They are again in the middle of the circle, but it was Herne the Hunter who lead the fight.
The few smart enough to bet on the Hunter jubilate. A small fortune wait for them at the end of the fight.
With every blow Sigfried step back and in the end he accept the defeat, not very content after he was almost certain about the outcome in his favor.
Every dog have his day! moan Sigfried for himself, trying to smile and congratulate Herne the Hunter for the victory, while regain his breath.
- Con..gratulations, my dear friend! Ni..ce fight, isn't it? My foot slipped a bit at the last blow or you could not win so easily. Next time you won't be so lucky.
It wasn't sure if Herne the Hunter hear what Sigfried says, he was surrounded by the people who almost suffocate him in the attempt to touch the winner. It is an old superstition who says who touch the winner gain the favors of gods, not to mention the popularity of the Hunter amongst the Teutons.
