Bab 258: The expedition reaches the barbarian lands of the north

On the main ship, Oleg was kneeling while he was praying at the small altar on the ship. Beside him were two priests who were doing their daily prayers.

Gautier just looked at them in silence before shaking his head and leaving the altar of the ship, as he wanted to see how they were moving through the great river that would take them north.

After climbing some wooden stairs, the sunlight dazzled him a bit so he used his hand to cover his face.

Beautiful trees and from time to time the occasional Viking ship in the river as well as some remnants of villages that were burned at the time.
