Eighth Viking Charge [Video]
[Astrid is in Ecruteak, and she looks...puzzled. She's frowning at her gear absently as she starts to talk.]
Okay. So, I've learned to deal with a lot here, really. Riding on the back of a giant bird, eggs that hatch into dogs, animals that get 'knocked out' instead of killed.
Ghost masks that make you think you're other people and no I am never going to talk about that.
Ghosts in general. I caught a ghost! He looks like a furry floating dark thing that grins. Which is weird. It's all weird.
But I think...this sort of wins.
[She turns the camera away now, to where her Wailmer is sitting on the ground looking gigantic and very happy. He sort of wiggles at the camera in what might be an attempt at a tail wag.]
He hatched from an egg that I could hold in my hands. Egg to that. He's HUGE. [And back to Astrid.] The 'Ball Whale Pokemon.' Seriously? And the strangest thing? Someone mailed me the egg. Anonymously. Someone looked at this and thought 'I'm going to give this whale thing to the viking girl.'
[She just shakes her head.]
I think I'm gonna name him 'Ball.'

Oh, no. Ours have wings usually, some bigger than others, and big solid bodies and long necks...usually...and four feet and a tail...
[She frowns.]
They all look pretty different but none like that.

Ah, my name is Wang Yao, by the way. [He bows his head. Talking about dragons gets him so excited he often forgets to introduce himself.]

Oh, I'm Astrid. Hey.

If only the people from my world could meet you, I wonder what they would think since some of them used to be vikings.

How do you stop being a viking?
