Remember, it contains the salty ocean you must sail upon to the edge of the world.

  Amleth : It feeds the freezing river of hate that runs in my veins.

  Amleth : There I will drown my father's killer.

  Seeress : Follow the vixen's tail to the dwelling of the ancient one to seek the fated sword that matches your brutal rage.

  Amleth : Why speak you my fortune, witch?

  Seeress : For where your path of ashes ends, another will begin her journey. A maiden king.
