Sibilja was a sacred war cow, much revered in Sweden. She possessed\u00a0a destructive bellow capable of turning the minds of any attacking force to madness.\u00a0Agnar & Eric Ragnarsson had already found this out after making war on King Eystein in their father's absence.\u00a0
Sibilja made short work of their men and soon many fled or lashed out at their fellows in fury and confusion. The Ragnarsson's kept their minds, being of such stout kin, but Agnar was slain by the horns of\u00a0Sibilja\u00a0and Eric was captured and taken prisoner. Despite being\u00a0offered\u00a0peace and the daughter of King Eystein in marriage, Eric elected to instead be killed on spears and raised above the battlefield so he would not be overlooked for\u00a0Valhalla after such a defeat.\u00a0
Hearing of their brother's death the surviving sons of Ragnar and their mother Aslaug made ready for war.\u00a0It was Ivar the Boneless, the largest and strongest\u00a0Son of Ragnar\u00a0who led the next attack and managed to subdue Sibilja himself,\u00a0shooting arrows through her eyes, blinding her before wrestling her down, slitting her throat and silencing her bellows for good, avenging his brothers.<\/p>
