Editing Wulfrik the Wanderer (section)

===Treachery===
Despite the fame coming from his various deeds in the Chaos gods' service, Wulfrik found no enjoyment; he only wished to rule his clan and wed Hjordis. Logically, his wishes should've been granted for slaying the Aesling King '''Torgald''', but the chieftain '''Viglundr''', a devout follower and chosen of Tzeentch (he has the mark of Tzeentch on his heart) rejected it due to the sudden curse Wulfrik received (or whatever bullshit a Tzeentch follower could spew). Viglundr believes a man who is cursed by the gods to hunt their prey for eternity is too busy to rule and adore his daughter and decided he would rather have Sveinbjorn, his son-in-law and an Aesling prince receive that privilege; it was also another way to forge a new alliance with the Aeslings (the same tribe Wulfrik pwned the night he received his “gifts”) as part of his scheme.

At some point during his adventure, Wulfrik meets '''Zarnath of Tokmars''', a '''Kurgan''' shaman. He claimed that he knew a way to remove the gods' "gifts", but he would only do so if noble and oh so heroic Wulfrik could do a quick RPG fetch quest and get a certain artofact called the '''Smile of Sardiss''' from the infamous [[Chaos Dwarves]] for him. Wulfrik did just that: flying his ship to the dark land (a barren wasteland with little water, inaccessible by sea or river) with his companions; risking their lives by being shot at by a fuckton of Chaos stunties armed with Blundbuss (shotgun); hacking through uncountable numbers of Goblins sentinels; killing a bull lord (it was enraged by Wulfrik's insult and left an opening for Wulfrik to put his blade in); and battling the Chaos stunties' foul machinery (a Chaos Dwarf lord armed with power armor and flamethrower-- Wulfrik managed to burn him alive with his own weapon). The fight was so intense that Zarnath had to help with his magic (despite excuses and evasions), but Wulfrik triumphed like the fucking beast he is. He gets the artifact at the cost of his dear friend Sigvatr (died to the blades of two traitor comrades beside him), one of the few people he actually cared about in this war torn world. The fight also killed Zarnath except he showed up again back on the ship because magic.

In the meantime, Viglundr's scheme with the Aesling alliance isn't going well. Wulfrik is the one that killed the Aesling king and the relationship between the clans is a bit tattered even with their new chieftain, Sveinbjorn, and it will remain that way so long as Wulfrik lives. Viglundr decides then that the red-haired badass must take a snowy dirt nap if his dreams of power and prestige are to have any chance of coming true.

As soon as Wulfrik and Co. returned, Wulfrik was welcomed with the news of his lovely princess's marriage to prince Sveinbjorn. The prospect of being cuckolded by Sveinbjorn angered Wulfrik to no end and led him to challenging Sveinbjorn to a duel. Going along with the flow, Sveinbjorn was ordered by his father to put Wulfrik’s little victory streak to an end. They would settle their score in the Wolf Forest, an private arena owned by Wulfrik (used for among other things, recruitment, celebrations and duels) where they would do glorious battle in the name of the gods. To Wulfrik's surprise, the combatant wasn't Sveinbjorn, but rather a huge (about as tall as a troll), bloated chaos champion that Sveinbjorn’s daddy had hired, known throughout the Norsca by the name '''Fraener''', whom the gods has abandoned and now but a Forsaken. Thanks to his own huge [[Plot Armor|balls of titanium]], Wulfrik beat the champion to sludge; even with the champion's [[Chaos Spawn|transformation]] midway into the battle, Wulfrik fought savagely and pounded the abomination down below the spike-filled arena pit, thus earning the respect of several hundred warriors and increasing the size of his horde significantly.

Having their plan ruined like a typical [[Abbadon|Saturday morning]] [[Nagash|Cartoon Villian]], Viglundr decided to have Sveinbjorn bribe one of Wulfrik's men, '''Broendulf''', into betraying him. As for the second part of Zarnath's quest, he told Wulfrik and his gang to go to Ulthuan (also known as Alfheim in Norscan, nice Norse myth reference there Gee-dubs) in order to obtain the cure for Wulfrik's curse/gift by having the magic of that place absorbed into the artifact he got before. What's more, Zarnath is a treacherous asshole who had been plotting Wulfrik's demise from the beginning, meaning the quest to obtain Chaos Dwarves' artifact was naught but an excuse to get Wulfrik killed (at that time Zarnath was forced to "save Wulfrik" because the said bearded badass kept threatening him to smite the damn Dwarfs). After the gang landed on '''Cothique''', climbed its cliff shore and traveled down its prairie, the sorcerer fooled Wulfrik and his merry band of merry savages into killing a group of Elven maidens praying at a shrine, telling them that they were vile witches preparing to unleash havoc on the Norscans with foul magic. Turns out they were the wives of Elven nobles, praying for fertility and healthy babies if they were already pregnant (oh boy Khorne's gonna be pissed, slaughter of the weak? Big no no. Tiny skulls do make good necklaces tho, but Khaine? He should be the one killing these Elf feotuses!)

Zarnath then revealed his true nature, presumably twirling a cartoonish mustache, before disappearing into a cloud of smoke (because it was but his magic hologram which he controlled from Norsca), alerting nearly every warrior on the bloody continent of Ulthuan while doing it. The Elves and Wulfrik's gang then had a massive battle that caused Khorne to violently ejaculate molten brass all over the place (Slaanesh was indeed pleased, before you ask).

The Elves were filled with determined hatred toward these barbarians, to the point Wulfrik could hear "panic" from their conversations: fear of letting them get away without torturing them! Not only did the Elves outnumber the gang with high numbers of Silver Helms and Elven bowman, some of them were experienced veterans from when Erik Redaxe invaded (he was defeated by [[Tyrion]]'s army), meaning the Elves are damn good at dealing with Norscans.

Despite the odds, the Norscan gang fought to the very end, especially Wulfrik, who was both fairly lucky (the Smile of Sardiss he bought contained some kind of Daemon, which kept away Elf phantoms that tried to rot them) and so pissed off at the betrayal that he injured a great pale [[Merwyrm]] while fighting his way back to the sea. That said, the battle ended up killing everyone involved except Wulfrik and a warrior named '''Broendulf''' and destroying the Seafang (leaving only the figurehead-- conveniently, the only part that mattered as it held all the magic in it). The two warriors escaped using just the figurehead strapped to the front of an Elven galley.

While trespassing the warp in a fashion related to 40k, Broendulf confessed to Wulfrik about Viglundr's plotting against him as well as his part of the plan. Hilariously, the reason for Broendulf's betrayal is so he could have Hjordis for himself since Sveinbjorn himself claimed to him that he has [[FATAL|erectile dysfunction]] and was not interested in the princess the slightest. Wulfrik rebuked him for being "twice the fool" for believing them and said that [[A Song of Ice and Fire|Sveinbjorn fucked so many people that most of the tribesman as well as people living nearby are his bastard sons]]. Whatever the misunderstanding, Broendulf was unable to turn on Wulfrik who had saved his life so many times during the battle. Despite his part in the treachery, Wulfrik partnered up with Broendulf, with Broendulf vowing to remain by Wulfrik's side until their enemies had been dealt with.
