05. Fighting with Gods

Ein mächtiger, gepanzerter König steht im Kampf dem Gott Thor auf einem leuchtenden Platz vor den majestätischen Hallen Walhallas gegenüber.
The King of Metal and Thor fighting.

 

Once upon a time and long ago there was a king called 'The King of Metal'. He was the mightiest king all over the world and he was a friend of the gods in Valhalla.
The King of Metal had a sword, which was the best, the strongest, the hardest, the most beautiful sword ever made. He was so proud of his weapon.
Every year the king was invited to visit the gods of Valhalla for talking about the situation in Midgard and about politics.

It happened that, when the king visited Valhalla, Thor wanted to fight against him just for fun. Thor took his hammer and cried out: “By the power of Odin give me the strength of the storm!" The King of Metal raised his sword into the air and said: 'Moon, power of the moon, save my life and make my sword powerful to win against the god Thor, son of Odin.
Then the fight began. They fought one day, nobody won. They fought another day, nobody lost. When the third day was over, they stopped fighting and sank down into each other's arms. Not the two men, but the time had won the fight. They were tired but happy, so they wanted to party. The Lords of the storms came and every mighty Viking who died in glorious battles, paid tribute to the King of Metal because he was the first man who fought against Thor and didn't die. Everybody was happy and they didn't stop to party before three days had passed.
