CCXXII. The Testimony

" To be sacrificed... the Inguz rune... is used to bless sacrifices" she continued.

"What? Do you mean they were going to kill you as a sacrifice? To whom? The God Heimdallr?" asked Dag, as his hands began to sweat, imagining what that poor girl had been through.

She said no with her head. 

She looked him back in the eye and placed a finger on her right eye, then pointed to Dag's face.

He paused a moment to think. 

"It can't be... they wanted to offer you as a sacrifice to the Frostsinners, right? The Xis!" he exclaimed after reflecting for a few seconds, hoping to get it wrong.

As soon as she heard that name, Ragna shuddered and stuck her head between her legs, beginning to tremble unchecked.
