The Bard's Tale - Viking Lord Hrafn

Fantasy art from The Bard's Tale fantasy role playing game.

This is a cutscene with the viking lord Hrafn. The first half of this mocks the fantasy role-playing cliché of suddenly animating skeletal remains into an undead treasure guardian.
Further conversation with Hrafn leads to a "competition" where The Bard and Hrafn compete for draugr (undead viking) kills in the nearby catacombs. In fact this is not a competition at all--once Hrafn receives a certain number of kills, regardless of how many the Bard obtains, he ascends to Valhalla and gives the Bard a key to progress further in the game.
Incidentally, the valkyrie's pose (to enhance her bust?) is quite curious.
