Garmarna....

Today on the commuter train I had nothing better to do, so I really listened to the text of one of the Garmarna-songs that resides on my mp3player.


And I catch this nugget:

"Och när jag druckit min broders blod
Så blev jag en riddare båld och god!"

(approx. translation
"And when I drank my brother's blood
I became a knight bold and good!")

The whole song as such is slightly grisly - the girl singing got cursed 5 times over by her mother, but got out of the curse by ambushing her mother, ripping her unborn son from her womb and eating him...

I dunno. Lawful good paladin by eating unborn babies?

Ah, the good old days of wholesome family entertainment.
