Exactly at that instant, seconds before he was hit, while standing still in the same position, Dag looked down, closing his eyes: 

"The things worth living for" he said. 

Gridd was able to hear those words and suddenly felt a pain in her heart and stomach, which caused her to lose her breath, while her brother was about to die before his eyes.

Reidar also couldn't hold back a scream when the hundreds of arrows hit Dag's shot, piercing him on each side, on his neck, shoulders, back, legs.

The arrows continued to fall and he knelt down, unable to stand up. 

"It's not possible, it's not possible!" shouted Reidar, who, caught in an endless rage, pulled out the Failnaught and began to shoot arrows everywhere, killing dozens of enemy warriors, until an arrow struck him on the shoulder, causing him to fall to the ground.
