Eric kills three men

Eric kills three men and maims a fourth

(Eric Olafson, Neo Viking ) Chapter 17: Mother

Men of his own clan who show up drunk, knife Aunt Freydis and shoot Uncle Hogun with an off-world blaster. This is the first time he uses Mördaren and goes bezerk

Scene

I had a chance to reach him. Mördaren severed the man’s arm holding the weapon. There was nothing that held me back. I was afraid to look back to look after Uncle Hogun and all my anger, my pain found release. Until a voice reached me through the red veil that had lowered before my eyes and really came to my senses. Four of the five men were dead, not just dead but it looked as if a Fangsnapper had torn them apart! My Uncles body laid face forward on the floor not moving and I saw the two black holes in his back. The man who had shot him knelt by his own arm and simply shivered and rocked back and forth. Two Elders out of breath, Hein and Class and Father himself stood at the door. I still held Mördaren and pointed it at him. “You triumphed over your brother by sending drunkards to harass his wife and wounding her. There he lies shot by one of your best men, who like a coward used a gun! You want me dead and gone now is the time father, I am here come and face me!” Father trembled and his hand on the whip.” You cannot challenge me yet, Whelp!” For some reason, this all seemed to amuse him!
