Free Comic Book Script - Shaman by Stephen Sonneveld

$0.00

Theme: Crom Myth

11 Pages

Shaman Summary:

After a brutal battle, Crom the Barbarian seeks rest and healing in the village of Deval, where he shares a brief romantic connection with an innkeeper named Lea. But his wounds—both physical and spiritual—compel him to journey into the wilderness. There, he learns from a woman named Mei about the Vicari army, who are marching to conquer the Kota tribe. Crom sneaks into the sacred lands and witnesses a powerful Shaman condemn a traitor using terrifying magic, violently dismembering him.

Though the Kota seem invincible, Crom realizes their power is rooted in belief. When the Vicari invade, their lack of belief nullifies the magic, and they ruthlessly slaughter the tribe, including women and children. Crom, unable to help, watches in horror with the harlots who follow the army. Later, back in Lea's bed, he recounts the massacre, haunted and grieving. As she comforts him, he is still reliving the trauma, a warrior burdened by guilt over his powerlessness in the face of overwhelming violence.
