Rorik stepped back, and the crowds stopped cheering. This was something that noone expected. Not even the Snake Tamer, watching with odd, bug eyes. Rorik noticed that who he saw wasn't an oridnary man; he was sure he would be standing by the Saltan's throne.<br/><br/>However, more pressing maters were at hand as the snake looked upon Alvar with voracious eyes. It hissed back and forth, then shot forward, engulfing Alvar whole, and then regaining its position, still hungry for more.<br/><br/>"Give it hell..." Rorik whispered, as the crowd began to cheer once more.
