In this short scene, the hero of the story, Valhalla, enters the hall of the feast. He is overcome with emotion at the thought that the heroes of his homeland never mourn the loss of their lives. He sings a song about the peninsula of Scandinavia, which is the center of the continent. He tells the audience that the wolf that he killed with his axe was killed by his brother, Bjorn. The wolf was wounded by the blow of his axe, and the hero is grateful to his brother for saving his life.
