Vic the Viking Synopsis: Sven's pirate crew raids Flake while the Viking men are hunting and plans to abducts their wives. Wickie sees that and seduces them to enjoy their cooking, then sneaks off to warn Halvar's party. Their half-cocked attack fails as Sven puts a knife to Hilva's throat, so the men are captured too and must hand o er all treasures. Wickie fields the only weapon he found in the forest: stinker beetles, which he launches by rope-stretched springy tree.
