And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Actual, real life Viking weapons
The sword is from the river Bann, Co. Antrim, Ireland, while the axe is from the river Robe, Co. Mayo.
My Father's side of the family came from County Antrim. As far as I know there are still a few distant relatives living there. One of my drunken ancestors may have lost that sword. LOL!
