As a Tolkien fan, I found myself exploring some of his writings outside of Middle-earth. One of the stories I really like is his version of the Sigurd story from the Volsung Saga, called The Legend of Sigurd and Gudrún. One mini-story within the greater one is the story of Sigurd and his fight with a dragon named Fáfnir, and that is what the link in this post is focused on. There’s a lot more going on in the story than just what you are presented with in this snippet, but it’s still a fun snippet to share that was written by someone that obviously enjoyed the story.
