“The battle raged, the blood, gore and the stench of death of hundreds of the fallen, of both Saxons and Vikings permeated the air around her. With Every move Her chest guard dug painfully into her side from a gouge from a broad sword. Her helm obscured her peripheral vision as it had been her brothers, and sat awkwardly on her head due to its size. No time to catch her breath as the huge Saxon assaulted her, her shield fending off the vicious blows of his claymore. Being nearly half his size, she needed to be nimble and smart, a swift upper cut to his jaw with her shield caught him off balance, followed by a slice from her modified broad sword. The Saxon fell to his knees, allowing just enough decrease in stature for Brynhild to finish him off with a jab to the neck, arterial spray covered her face and chest. No time to rest, the next Saxon was upon her, hacking forcefully at her shield she was sure it would splinter. It took all her strength to maintain her footing. His attack was merciless, forcing her to careen backwards, steel crashed against steel in a maddened melee. She feinted left, then put all her velocity in shouldering him in his midsection, momentum taking him swiftly to the blood sodden ground. In the distance a call to retreat was heard from the Saxon Lord, the battle broke, the Viking horde was victorious, Brynhild slumped down a nearby tree, too exhausted and weak to move her last conscious thought was to wonder who the strong Shield-maiden was that gently picked her up and carried her forward. The next thing she knew, she was in a magnificent Hall, filled with raucous laughter and the scent of roasted boar. The sound of sword play was also heard from a nearby doorway. Warriors sat with horns filled with mead, in earnest discourse of the battles they had fought. A clearing of a throat brought her eyes to the great table at the head of the hall, there stood a heavily muscled bearded, one-eyed Man, the hall was moved to silence as the great man strode toward her. “Welcome to Valhalla Brynhild,” he clapped a hand on her shoulder “You have fought bravely, Please take your place among the warriors and enjoy the feast.” Shouts of Skal! filled the hall. Happiness assailed her, resurrected, to one day fight again for Odin in the twilight of the Gods, The Battle of Ragnarök.”

“Es kam auch zu weiteren Überläufen, allen voran 4000 Sachsen, die Reyniers Korps zugeteilt waren und ganz einfach in geschlossenen Reihen zu den Alliierten marschierten. Zu den Augenzeugen dieses bemerkenswerten Seitenwechsels zählte Marschall Macdonald, der durch das Fernrohr beobachtete, wie die Sachsen, während sie einen erfolgreichen Vorstoß gegen die Verbündeten anführten, einfach kehrtmachten und ihre Waffen auf die Franzosen richteten, die ihnen folgten. »Kalten Blutes, in himmelschreiender Weise«, erinnerte er sich später, »schossen sie die Ahnungslosen nieder, mit denen sie bis hierher in treuer Waffenbrüderschaft gefochten.« Verzweifelte Versuche Marschall Neys, die Reihen zu schließen und einen Gegenangriff zu führen, wurden von der britischen Raketenbrigade zunichte gemacht, deren Congreve’sche Raketen, benannt nach dem britischen Erfinder William Congreve, unter den vorrückenden Kolonnen Angst und Schrecken verbreiteten.”
