- Translated transcription: Vébjörg does not immediately grasp what has happened.
Why is Haraldr hanging there on the barn wall like that? – What happened to the stranger? – Then she understands that there must be something seriously wrong with her foster-brother, and that he needs her help. Gently she frees him from the spear and lays him at full length on the ground.
Horrified she now sees how pale the beloved face has become and how the red blood stains his tunic. Slowly the pain spreads in the young girl’s breast and the awakening despair. She turns to look at the stranger, who is nowhere in sight.
Untroubled, Starkaðr has returned to his restless wandering. With only a shrug of his shoulders and a mocking smile at the dead figure behind him.
