Text
- Athnor descended beneath the earth and stood facing a crone who was seated in front of a large cavern.
- "Greetings, Mother! Tell us where the black warrior has taken our sister and bride!" he demanded.
- "He has brought her here to his dwelling."
- "We mean to follow him and retrieve our sister."
- "You may follow as you will, but you will not retrieve your bride.
- Those who have ridden away in his battle car do not return.
- Others before you have tried to regain those whom he has abducted but all have failed.
- The way is long and fraught with danger.
- You will not succeed in passing my husband."
- "That may be, Mother, but we undertake this quest armed with a power that you and he have not yet encountered."
- With a cold laugh she answered, "You will find him soon enough.
- Then you will discover whether this power of yours is strong enough."
- At that the smoke stopped and Athnor felt himself rising from the cavern and returning to his body.
- Regaining consciousness, he sat upright and opened his eyes.
- The snow had ceased to fall and the sun was beginning to rise above the land.
- Already the snow was beginning to melt and flow away.
- "I know who he is!" exclaimed Nestu.
- "I know where he lives!" replied Athnor.
- "We can now return to the village and make ready for the journey."
