Hersir

A Hersir was a local Viking military commander of a hundred (a county subdivision), of about 100 men, and owed allegiance to a jarl or king. They were also aspiring landowners, and, like the middle class in many feudal societies, supported the kings in their centralization of power.

May my call be heard
May my words resonate
From shallow undercroft
To deepest barrow
So that no wizened ear may misinterpret
My necromantic invocation

Draugar, Haugbúar
Rise as corporeal ghosts
Wielding weapons laden with rust
To impale the hearts of men
Strike fear into the realm of the living
Draugar, Haugbúar

Straddle the rooftops
With malicious glee
And with bestial intent
May the dead roam free
Resurface from obscurity
Exact your revenge
May your sinister laughter
Freeze the blood in their veins

Benighted
Spew miasmal carnage upon their crops
May your venom seethe this mortal coil

Tonight the past comes alive
What they thought buried
By dust and time immemorial
Now stands before them
Like a nightmare they sought to forget
Only true believers of the old faith
Stand a chance against the coming storm

Draugar, Haugbúar
Rise as corporeal ghosts
And devour all that live and breathe

Benighted
May the flowers of youth wither in your wake
Yours to claim is a kingdom of death
Yours to claim is a kingdom of death
