Then 3PO and R2 heard loud shouting, for this reason that they were able to
hear all that which happened in the neighborhood of the enchanted

I gave Duel Han bad advice, and now the serpent kills them all.”

Nú Lúkr heyrir þetta, ok segir, “Vér lifum enn, Þrípíó. Spyrðu Artú, hvárz

Now Luke hears this and says, “ We live still, 3PO. You ask R2, whether he

which had that spell which lay on the garbage boat.

“Fær Artú stǫðvuð ǫll athaldsgaldraljóð á harkabátinum?” spyrr Lúkr Þrípíó.
“R2, are you able to stop all the restraining magic spell on the garbage
boat?” Luke asks 3PO.

En Artú segir Þrípíó, “Ek fæ stǫðvuð ǫll galdraljóð á harkabátinum, en eigi
athaldsgaldraljóð sérstaklega.”
And R2 tells 3PO, “I am able to stop all (the) magic spell on the garbage
boat, but not the restraining spell specifically??”


“Þá stǫðvaðu þau ǫll,” segir Þrípíó. Ok þá fingu þau Lúkr hlaupit ýr

“Then stop them all,” says 3PO. And then they, Luke (and company) are able
to jump out of the garbage boat and they began then to swim back to Death
Star.

XXXIII. Kapítuli: Frá hólmgǫngu Víga-Óbívans ok Veiðrs
Of the Duel of Slayer Obiwan and Vader

Nú es at segja frá því, at Víga-Óbívan Kvæggansson fann Veiði-Anakin á
Dauðastjǫrnu.
Now is to tell of it that Slayer Obiwan Kvaeggan’s son found Vader Anakin on
Death Star.

“Lengi hef ek beðit þín, Víga-Óbívan,” segir Veiðr, “Endileg sjǭumsk vit
aptr, ok nú es hringrinn heill.”
“Long have I waited for you, Slayer Obiwan,” says Vader, “Finally we see
each other again, and now is the circle complete.”

Víga-Óbívan þagði, en brá sverði Ljósamæki inum grœna, þeim es hann nam frá
Lúki at láni.
Slayer Obiwan was silent, but drew (the) sword, Lightsaber the green, that
which he took from Luke as a loan.

“Es vit sǭmsk sízt, vas ek þræll,” mælti Veiðr enn, “En nú em ek dróttinn.”
“When we saw each other last, I was a thrall,” said Vader still, “But now I
am a lord.”
