Not all stories are good beginning to end. My own was not.
He was someone I wanted to hate. He deserved it. He was the Viking that raided my home of East Anglia. He took everything I had while liberating me at the same time.
I impressed him. I sparked his curiosity and I challenged him. His lands, his Gods and their traditions sparked something in me as well.
He was unexpected.
I hated him, admired him, respected him, and desired him.
He showed me a new world, a new way of life. He shaped me, moulding me into the unknown. I fought, but could not know what for.
All I knew... I was not the same.

This is a land ruled by iron wills, unyielding blades, and the favor of deities who watch over their mortal kin. At the heart of this tale are the Northern People, feared and reviled by the Christian kingdoms to the south, who call them "heathens" and "barbarians." To the Christians, they are marauders from a savage land, bringers of chaos and fire.

Their ships, sleek and swift, carry them across the seas to trade, raid, and explore lands far beyond their frozen homelandComplete
