### 79

You drag the dead Drakkar behind the rocks and divest the body of its armour. Although not a perfect fit, the leather battle-jacket, leggings, and battle-mask make you look convincingly like a Drakkar warrior. Apart from the armour (which you need not record on your Action Chart), you discover a number of items that may be of use to you on the road ahead:

- Sword
- Dagger
- Bow
- Quiver
- 4 Arrows
- 30 Kika (equivalent to 3 Gold Crowns)

If you decide to keep any of these items, remember to record them on your Action Chart.

The dead warrior's horse is standing nearby, pawing the ground nervously. Using your innate Kai skill of animal kinship, you succeed in claiming him and making him obey your commands. Slowly he approaches and allows you to climb into the saddle. Once you are sure that you have control you flick your heels and head off at a canter along the trail to Argazad.

Turn to 200.
