As the wheel of time ticks by after the corruption, and peace settles over Uskara, Orym Branyn must begin his journey to join his soul. All goes to plan, the ceremony, and the days following. Until Orym and an unknown man are expelled from his tree with a message from the goddess, Mirith.
They must prevent a poison that threatens the life of Uskara, and the imprisonment of the deity Ubium, the one responsible for the Corruption and near extinction of man. But travelling North will be harder than it seems, some aren't so willing to believe in the gods, nor to help passing strangers, especially amidst those who wield magic and those who hunt it. Caught up in a web of death and destruction, can they make it to the poison in time, and cure it, before all of Uskara falls?

The Rise Of A Valkyrie [TROAV]
Before the gods walked, the Norns had already woven the fates of all. When it came to Svea, it is said that Yggdrasil itself trembled, shaken by the pain she would endure and the Shield-Maiden she would one day become. Born the daughter of a humble farmer, Svea is torn from her home and dragged into slavery under the rule of a ruthless Jarl. Though she eventually breaks free, she finds herself caught in something far heavier than chains: fate itself. Armed only with her fractured sense of right and wrong, the hard lessons of women who abandoned her, and the unseen wings of the Valkyries stirring behind her, Svea must rise. A trial awaits - one unlike any before. A battle not just for survival, but for the warrior she is still becoming. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author Twitter: @AuthorSukiH Cover Art: @ckimart ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coming soon to Webtoon! / Now posted on Webovel & Royal Road.

The gates of time have opened. The past is calling. An ancient evil awakens. Blending into the greyness of everyday life isn't easy-especially after what Evangeline has been through. During an archaeological excavation on the Irish coast, she vanishes without a trace at the heart of a mysterious stone circle. Ismael-still haunted by the events in Egypt more than he lets on-sets out desperately to find her. But what he discovers will challenge everything he thought he knew about reality. Evangeline finds herself trapped in a forgotten age, where the language is familiar, but the world is far more brutal. As she struggles to forge a new identity in a time not her own, Ismael is left in the present, facing a single, burning question: how far would you go for someone you might never truly have known? Meanwhile, Fay and her immortal family must confront a being of immense power, awakened from its ancient slumber and eager to break free from its prison. Help comes from an unexpected place, and the heroes are drawn into yet another memory of a past life-one as treacherous as it is revealing. A sweeping historical fantasy, rich with Norse mythology, Celtic legacy, and Egyptian mystery-this is a story of fate, time, and the unbreakable bonds of loyalty.Complete
