I wandered over the plains of ice
My crew and I have found a cave
deep in the hills of ice.
Uninhabited Green land revealed
a lasting secret.
In the chambers of the cave
there lay a stone sarcophagus,
the runes were around it
two I could read.
"handbani" and "Dain"
Killer death.
Was it killer death or killer of death
I was not sure,
the other runes I could not read
yet we moved the lid.
Laying beneath was a skeletal form
dressed as a Dane king,
the tomb dates
to the early viking age.
A long ancient sword was held
by the leathery
skeletal hands,
the preservation was exciting.
A shaft we had not noticed
before within the chamber,
allowed the moons light
to shine upon the body and sword.
The last thing I saw
was the skin reviving,
as the signs of breath
were noticed.
The Dane king awoke.
Let me know How this makes you feel, what do you think?

Oooo, how exciting, this reminds me of The Mummy also of the movie The Librarian: Curse of the Judas Chalice. Very enjoyable read. Actually felt I was there.
