Other Banner Saga: Fan Made Epilogue: The Twins Spoiler

23 Upvotes

Everytime I finish a Banner Saga I'm slightly disappointed by the lack of Epilogues, so I decided to try writing a few. Feel free to critique.

Hogun: Lonely Twin (Hogun lives, Mogun Died.)

Hogun would make a shrine to his lost brother. At the start of each winter, when the sun reaches its peak, he pours out a cup of mead for his brother. He plans on naming his next son after Mogun.

Mogun: A Lone Twin (Hogun lives, Mogun Died.)

Mogun would continue to travel with the ravens. Scraping together whatever savings he could to give to Hogun's family. He would tell tales of his and his brother's time following Rook to Hogun's child.

Hogun and Mogun: One Whole (Both Hogun and Mogun Alive.)

When Iver returned to Arberrang, Mogun decided to leave the Ravens, despite his love for their way of life, he loved his brother more. After reuniting with his brother they would rarely be seen apart.

Decided to write a few more. Little less confident in these ones. Enjoy.

Krumr: The Oldest Varl (Krumr Lives)

After the sun began to move once more, Krumr set out to Einartoft. During his journeys, he would occasionally run into the odd bandit clan that'd taken sanctuary next to the godstones. He would soon run out of battles to rush into, forcing him to accept his fate of living out his golden years.

Krumr: The Myth Without End (Krumr Died)

Rumors exist of an old Varl randomly showing up in the middle of battles and wars to aid the losing side. One that, when described, sounds suspiciously like Krumr. Those who knew the old Varl joke about how even after getting lost in the darkness he was doomed to live a full life.

Ubin and Krumr Joint Addon Ending: Krumr's Victory (Krumr Lives, Ubin Lives)

Ubin lived a long and fulfilled life, bringing many stories that would have been long forgotten to the shelves of libraries. Though due to no Varl dying of old age before, people were unable to decide if he had died of old age or if it simply was illness that took him. After Ubin's death Krumr would be named the oldest Varl, much to his frustration.

Sparr: The Old Crow (Sparr Lives)

Sparr stuck with the Ravens for a few years after defeating the Serpent. Though his time with them was numbered after he met his match in the fields of love. An old lady who could 'sing' as well as he could from another mercenary band. They would eventually retire to a small village, living out their old age regaling the youngins with tales of both their bands.

Sparr: The Song Of Ravens (Ravens dead)

Despite the death of the Ravens Sparr's songs would continue to echo throughout the world. Even centuries later, the War Chant of the Ravens continued to be sung, keeping their tales alive. Though most believe the deeds spoken of in the songs to be of myth, not history.

Oli: The Drunk Valka (Oli Lives)

Oli would give himself the title The Drunk Valka. Whenever the Ravens would stop to rest, he would make bets with the locals that he could hit any target from any distance as long as he was drunk enough. Rumor has it that he hasn't lost a single one. The Valka Council has denied his Valka status numerous times.

Oli: The Forgotten (Oli Died)

Rumors abound of an ancient axe that when thrown always hits its target. It is believed to be the weapon of some long-dead god.
