“Battle for the Dragon Ship!”

A blond Viking is pulled from the water, but has no memory of his past. Gunnda names him "Jon, the Shining, [after] the great Viking Prince of old!" But a spy knows him and reports to Baron Thorvald that "the youth" still lives. The spy threatens Jon's hosts, but gets a surprise as he fights with fish net, sword, and anything handy. Baron Thorvald comes in a dragon ship to capture him. The Viking Prince has himself shot from a catapult to tear the dragon ship sail. He brawls with Vikings as Thorvald jumps overboard. Together they will fight tyranny, as Jon seeks his lost identity.
