Sven Eriksen's viking warriors after clearing the village encountered more resistance from the temple warriors blocking their way on a rocky outcrop .... (see previous post)
---oXo---
Sven draws up his men facing the rocky outcrop and sends some men to see if they can get through the woods to the left
The vikings have found their way through the wood and the temple warriors seeing themselves outflanked start to fall back; the vikings who got through the wood head for the Golden Temple.
The temple warriors fall back to a rocky hilltop to make a stand there as the vikings continue their deliberate advance....
The vikings move across the causeway to the temple, when the others confront the temple warriors ...
The defenders of the temple island get ready for the fight .....
The defenders hold the far causeway but the vikings have broken through on the right....
The defenders are hard pressed on the other two causeways, now being attacked in the rear as well ..
The defenders go down fighting, the vikings mop up ....
The temple warriors are surrounded on the rocky hilltop, the vikings keep them penned in ....
Sven Eriksen reaches the island, his men are trying to locate all the treasure and are threatening the temple priest...
They have the temple treasure chest, Sven orders one of his men to use his axe and knock off the head of the gryphon statue - Sven reaches inside and pulls out a scroll - this is the second of the clues to the location of the 'Whorled Cup' .....
---oXo---
Sven and his men leave the temple and withdraw back to their ships picking up some more booty from the village on the way (the temple warriors let them pass - they have no stomach for any more fighting)...
Where will Sven and his men have to go to find the next clue to the location of the 'Whorled Cup' ?
