MacGuizer the Piper

As the Admiral's dreaded vessel surges forward, his brigands poised to fling grappling hooks, tar barrels and blazing torches into their grim-faced resistance's boat;

Silhouetted in the torch-lit smoke, the Piper brandishes his instrument, then begins to play a solemn, melancholic [war song] that makes even the most hardened of their warriors knock their knees in fear.

Entry to Round 2 of the 2018 Bio-Cup, sub-theme being the holiday 'Up Helly Aa'.

 

I pretty much intended to get the holiday’s highlights and just mash em together:

Scottish stuff like bagpipes, kilts, the 'Guizer's' furs and the ‘Jarl’s glorious winged helmet... and the fire.

Oh yeah.
