Fate. We have no decision in the plans set for us. God's plan for me was brutal. My soul had been compromised, violated. My heart and hope ripped to shreds.
I stare out at the engulfing flames. History would forever bleed for his memory but I, I will be forgotten. Time and maybe even God's memory of me will fade until I had never even existed.
Here is where he would remain, protecting the land forevermore. I wish he could protect me now, but now it was my duty to protect him. My king, my husband.
authors note:
Hello! I'm kerri, the author. I would like to point out a few things. I am a history fanatic, I attempt to make all writings historically accurate.
This story takes place around 865 a.c. While some characters such as the brothers Ubbe and Hvitserk are based loosely off the those in History Channels Vikings, Edlin is my own creation. Ivar is similar to Vikings but not entirely. I have decided to stick with historical interpretations since even historians don't know all the truth about the invasion of England by Ivar the Boneless.
Lastly, no one truly knows if Ivar was crippled, therefore I will be depicting him as so for the time being.Now, on with the story....
