TWELVE

Gotrek blinked, a look of blank shock on his hard face. “When did this happen?”

“Snorri doesn’t know,” said Snorri. “He tried to remember after the fighting at Middenheim but nothing came to his mind. There was nothing there.”

“Too many nails in the head,” muttered Rodi under his breath.

“It’s shameful for a slayer to forget his shame?” asked Felix, confused.

“It is worse than shameful, manling,” said Gotrek, not taking his eye off Snorri. “It is a crime against Grimnir.” He sighed. “A dwarf becomes a slayer to atone for a great shame. If he forgets that shame, then he cannot atone for it. If he dies without remembering, he will not be admitted into Grimnir’s halls. He will have no peace in death.”

It took a moment for the immensity of Snorri’s plight to sink in, but then Felix saw that it was a terrible thing, the equivalent of a devout follower of Sigmar discovering that he was growing a tentacle or a third eye. Snorri was being denied salvation and forgiveness.

“Snorri is making a pilgrimage to Karak Kadrin,” said Snorri. “To pray at the Shrine of Grimnir. He will ask Grimnir to give him his memory back so he can have his doom.”

Gotrek nodded. “That is the right thing to do, Snorri Nosebiter. May Grimnir grant your boon.”

“But if you are afraid to meet your doom before you get your memory back,” said Felix as a thought came to him, “why are you still fighting? Isn’t it a terrible risk?”

Snorri shrugged. “The old lady said that Snorri had a destiny, so he is safe until he finds it. And also,” he grinned, sheepish, “when there are things to slay, Snorri gets excited and forgets that he has forgotten.”

“Forget his head if it wasn’t attached to his shoulders,” said Rodi.

Gotrek shot the young slayer a hard look, then turned and started shouldering through the snow again. “Come on,” he said. “We have a long road ahead of us.”
