How savage could a viking warrior really be?

Imagine waking up before dawn to the screams of your neighbor. You step outside your house and see ships approaching the coast. They aren't merchants. They're Vikings. Within minutes, your village could be burning, your men could be dead, and your family could be desperately trying to escape. But now imagine being on the other side. You're one of them. At first, you're just a man with a shield, an axe, and a lot of fear. But you survive. You come back. You fight again. And every battle turns you into something more dangerous. Until eventually, you're no longer the man who left that village. #vikings #vikinghistory #vikingwarriors #history #ancienthistory
