Swedish Saga: 2. The Moorish Girl That Had a Dream
“Did you see him, Yamina? Did you see that ugly, bearded ogre? Not only is he hideous, with his stinking clothes and filthy body, he is also as gullible as an ignorant child!
I only had to smile and tell him the first part of a childhood dream I had to make him believe that I love him! How stupid can a man be? He killed my father and my brother!
Once the other barbarians are gone, I’ll let him know the second part of my dream. I’ll laugh when I see panic and terror in those cruel, blue eyes!”

Thank you, Margarida, but this was the second part, haha. You might be wondering, like Emily and Lotchie, about yet another part. I’m glad you found it intriguing.
Oh no! What a turn around from part one! Dare I hope for a part 3?! I need answers ?

I even laughed out aloud at the twist it all took, feeling a bit sorry for the poor Viking, but with understanding for the poor moorish girl. I doubt it that there will be a third part.

I suppose it’s a very good thing that I have a dark and cruel imagination then haha!
I love when stories just take turns even for our own minds though. So often we sit to write one thing, only for something else entirely to come out!
Oh no! I was tricked. I thought it was a happy ending for the Moorish girl and the Viking. I think, like the other, I also need part 3, Christer. Well done, Christer.

? I just sit then thinking my own stories for the part 3.
Oh my, I can only imagine what she has in store for the gullible Viking but I don’t have much sympathy for him, Christer. Two great stories, really well written.

I’m also imagining the sequel. I feel like a voyeur of cruelty already! Gripping!
After some hesitation, I finally gave in to the request for a sequel that you and other readers were asking for, Allan. Please let me know how the voyeur in you reacts after having seen what happens in the third part of the story.

I guess you already have peeked into part three of this story, Fuji, so by now you know that there is yet another surprising twist. This time, it’s the Moorish girl’s friend who causes the surprise. I’m excited that you like it. Thank you!
Ah, I like it more and more. An intriguing twist, Christer. Remember us when Hollywood asks you to write the movie script ?

What a turn of events! This is very captivating. Off to part 3!
