In the beginning, the narrator has a vision of a boy turned warrior who wants to avenge his people's plight and death at the hands of Christian(?) crusaders. It probably took place in the Scandanavian/Germanic/Celtic regions where people widely practiced paganism before the Romans came with Christianity. Even when the crusaders tried to shame them and their beliefs, they stood tall until the Christians decided to kill them. When the narrator ends their vision, I guess they see the descendents of the people who were massacred (probably of the boy since he was the only survivor), who have never forgotten their heritage.
