Loki and the Wine Jug
Loki and the Wine Jug
Walking through the wooded area, you encounter the old maid. Loki is there, shaking his water jug at her, which appears to be full of wine. The wine spills out a bit as he points at her:
"Your wine jug spits contempt at thee,
thee shrill and witless cow.
Your wine jug spits, abandons it's master,
and comes nestled here with me now.
And as I have wine, I have grown now strong,
and need not pay when you sell.
So if you want those coin's lady,
I'll send thee straight to hell!!!"

Loki said, accusatorily. "I'm the King. You just give it."
The old maid considers this carefully, then her face coils in dismay.
"But your coins are needed by me,
for I have no food today.
If you wish I will divine you,
the secrets you request,
and any secrets held by me in this way,
shall be clutched to my breast!"

Loki turns to her, laughing and says:
"sure as a cow is to die at dinnertime,
Surer the cow'd cry when i made short knife of them."
Surer the cow'd cry when i made short knife of them."
She recoils back and says:
"Your blade I'd ask you stay today,
My Mother the Giant confirms,
I can divine your future more,
and lay waste to the worms."
My Mother the Giant confirms,
I can divine your future more,
and lay waste to the worms."
Loki continues throwing wine from his flask at her.
