Hercules

These are odds for a God! -- No paltry group of Trolls, but a full army! Ah, it makes the blood sing, Asgardian! It makes a man feel Alive!

Thor

It can also make a man dead, Olympian. Let these demons get close enough and they'll slit thy throat as soon as look at thee!

Hercules

I'd like to see them try Blondhair -- Ah, I'd like to see them TRY!
