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.

Remains of the Unknown | Vikings
" She could feel his gaze tracing on her back, yet she didn't turn around and acknowledged she understood. She froze in her position, squeezing her eyes shut, hoping he would just go away. Praying to God like they'd taught her, pleading He would be merciful as they'd said, and when He didn't listen hoping someone else might. As if called by a church bell, Father Cuthbert turned around, draught slamming the door right behind him. In payment one tear slid down her rosy cheek. " Based on the TV series VIKINGS.

The Blood of North
In the frozen lands of the North, where the sea's icy embrace meets towering cliffs and sprawling fjords, the saga of the Norse unfolds. Here, the air is thick with the scent of salt and pine, and the skies are alive with the whispers of ancient gods. 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. But among their own, these Vikings are warriors, explorers, and farmers, bound by honor, loyalty, and a destiny shaped by the gods themselves. Their ships, sleek and swift, carry them across the seas to trade, raid, and explore lands far beyond their frozen homelandComplete
