Welcome back, listeners, to TRUE ASSASSINS, the only podcast brave enough to delve into the darkest corners of history… or maybe just some seriously twisted tales from Orlando Madsbrine's "TRUE KILL"! Get ready to have your jaw hit the floor because this week we've got not one, but TWO blood-soaked stories that will leave you sleeping with the lights on!
Episode Title: Viking Vengeance: When Loyalty Ends in Agony
Ever wondered what happens when a sneaky Viking decides Saxon gold is more appealing than his axe-wielding brothers? Buckle up buttercups, because this ain't your Disney Viking cruise! Our first story rips you straight into the icy fjords where Leif thought he could pull a fast one. Saxon riches whispered sweet nothings in his ear, promising a life of luxury far from the messy business of raiding. But karma, or maybe just some sharp-eyed Vikings, had other plans. Turns out, selling out your crew has some… unpleasant consequences. We're talking dragged-before-your-mates kind of unpleasant, and not for a friendly pint. Forget a stern talking-to; these guys had a punishment so brutal, it makes waterboarding look like a spa day. Prepare for the legendary BLOOD EAGLE! Imagine your ribs being ripped open like monstrous wings. Yeah, we went there. Leif’s betrayal echoed in his agonizing screams as his lungs were… well, let's just say they weren't where they were supposed to be. And even in his final moments, mercy was a four-letter word these Vikings didn't understand. His last plea for a quick end? Denied! Talk about a bad day at the office. And those Saxon coins he sold his soul for? Tossed into the waves like the worthless trash they became. This is a chilling reminder that some bonds, especially the Viking kind, are forged in blood, and breaking them comes with a truly horrifying price.
Episode Title: Druid's Downfall: Nature Bites Back (Hard!)
Next up, we journey to a shadowy oak grove where things are definitely not as serene as they seem. Meet Caedmon, a druid who looked all holy in his gleaming white robes. The villagers probably thought he was all about peace and nature-loving vibes. Boy, were they wrong! Turns out, this so-called святой was secretly juicing up his powers with… you guessed it… blood sacrifice! He preached balance, but his idea of a sacred cycle involved some poor soul vanishing every solstice. Dark and intoxicating power was flowing through him, fueled by the very life force he was supposed to protect. But every tyrant has their kryptonite, and in this case, it came in the form of a defiant woman named Maeve. When the sacrificial dagger was raised, Maeve wasn't having any of it. Axe swinging, rebellion igniting – this wasn't your typical sleepy village gathering. Caedmon’s stolen power started to fizzle when his followers turned on him. The sacred grove became a bloodbath, and in a delicious twist of fate, Caedmon ended up on his own sacrificial altar. Maeve delivered the ultimate “thank you, next” with his own dagger. His scream? Definitely not holy. The solstice sun set on his reign of terror, proving that nature, and a few angry villagers, always have the final say. This is a tale of power built on lies crumbling in the most satisfyingly brutal way.
