When Sigurd heard the story he said to Regin : ` Make me a good sword that I may kill this Dragon . ' So Regin made a sword , and Sigurd tried it with a blow on a lump of iron , and the sword broke . Another sword he made , and Sigurd broke that too . Then Sigurd went to his mother , and asked for the broken pieces of his father 's blade , and gave them to Regin . And he hammered and wrought them into a new sword , so sharp that fire seemed to burn along its edges . Sigurd tried this blade on the lump of iron , and it did not break , but split the iron in two . Then he threw a lock of wool into the river , and when it floated down against the sword it was cut into two pieces . So Sigurd said that sword would do . But before he went against the Dragon he led an army to fight the men who had killed his father , and he slew their King , and took all his wealth , and went home . When he had been at home a few days , he rode out with Regin one morning to the heath where the Dragon used to lie . Then he saw the track which the Dragon made when he went to a cliff to drink , and the track was as if a great river had rolled along and left a deep valley . Then Sigurd went down into that deep place , and dug many pits in it , and in one of the pits he lay hidden with his sword drawn . There he waited , and presently the earth began to shake with the weight of the Dragon as he crawled to the water . And a cloud of venom flew before him as he snorted and roared , so that it would have been death to stand before him . But Sigurd waited till half of him had crawled over the pit , and then he thrust the sword Gram right into his very heart . Then the Dragon lashed with his tail till stones broke and trees crashed about him . Then he spoke , as he died , and said : ` Whoever thou art that hast slain me this gold shall be thy ruin , and the ruin of all who own it . ' Sigurd said : ' I would touch none of it if by losing it I should never die . But all men die , and no brave man lets death frighten him from his desire . Die thou , Fafnir , ' and then Fafnir died .
And after that XXXXX was called Fafnir 's Bane , and Dragonslayer .
