War Informative Speech

It is one of the most troubling times in Bernicia and everything is turning upside down. The king has just been killed and the tribe of Bernicia along with all of the surrounding tribes are in chaos. I, a mother of six, have became a widow because my husband has been killed in war, which is common during these times. Since most of the men in the tribe were murdered, the general in our tribe drafted some of the women to be shield maidens and I was one of the ones that was drafted. I am now having to teach my oldest daughter to care for the rest of my children because I have to fight in the war that is ahead. Today has been three days since my husband was killed. Our tribe leader has decided to move what is left of our village Eastward and the
Since we have fought the vikings many times before, our veteran soldiers are very aware of how the war will be. He spoke of a particular viking whose name is unknown who towers above all other viking warriors. He is said to be as tall as the trees and as broad as three men combined. No one has ever came close to killing this viking except my father, Noty, who almost defeated this viking warrior on our adventure to our current location. This particular viking raided our village years ago, stole all of our livestock, and killed six of our guardsmen. There is a prophecy taught by the elders that speaks of an uncommon soldier that will defeat a great opponent and lead the tribe of Bernicia to conquer many lands and my dear friend Alyieb believes that I am the chosen one. I am extremely frightened and unsure that I will survive this battle which will arrive tomorrow.

The next morning, the whole village packed their things and we were off to meet our opponent. I walked with Alyieb and my
I slashed the soldier time after time. Gashing his body multiple times, but it seemed to not affect him. I was fatigued and about to give up when I turned to see Alyieb coming behind me. He swung at the giants leg and in an instant he fell to the ground. In shock, I looked around to see a field covered with viking blood. I realized we had won the war and with all of my fellow fighters watching, I stabbed my sword straight through the heart of the enormous viking soldier. The next thing I remember is sitting on top of a crowd of my people, along with Alyieb. They were cheering and carried us all the way to our destination. As I settled my children into our new hut, the general approached Alyieb and I and notified us that we were chosen as the new King and Queen of Bernicia. It has been a few months now and I am happily married to King Alyieb and we have 5 beautiful kids, along with my own. Everything was wonderful until I got a letter from a viking soldier. It was a threat from the son of the giant viking soldier that I killed, stating that he would return with revengeful intentions. It seems that another war is on its
