Long ago, in a far away land, was a village of vikings.

The leader, King Manfri, and his brothers, have just returned from a successful battle and have come to the tavern to celebrate! The drinks are merry and all is well. Night falls, and a thick fog rolls into the tavern. Along with it comes a band of gypsies! They are mersermizing and the leader, Shetla, has stolen the heart of King Manfri. As their love blooms, all is right until a strange prescene comes over everyone. Something is wrong. Terrribly wrong. A gang of pirates ambush the vikings and they all perish except the king. The gypsies are wrapped in chains and the pirates return swiftly back to the sea. Within his deep despair, Manfri becomes consumed with anger and revenge. He sets forth on a journey to avenge his brothers and save his love. Along the way, through uncharted waters and tough terrain, he grows weary and seeks rest upon a rock. Suddenly, a mysterious creature emerges. A Siren. She is beautiful and terrifying and goes by the name of Aerwyna. Manfri pleads with the queen of sirens for help. He cannot fight this battle alone. She finally agrees to help him destroy the pirates. Far out at sea is the ship of Captain Lorna, a firece and cruel ruler of the waters. Her crew silutes her as the captive gypsies are frightened in their chains. The wind picks up and the tide changes as Aerwyna and her pod sneak onto the boat. They have a long battle until the pirates are defeate. King Manfri and Shetla, return home to a jamboree from the rest of the village. Their king has avenged them! They have learned that man cannot win on anger alone, but friendship bonded by trust is stronger than even the finest forged sword.
