Year of Our Lord 1013. Francia is lost. Capetians usurpers sit the throne, fattened on treachery, while the last daughter of the Carolingian dynasty rots in exile. Emma of Normandy now lives beneath false names in forgotten keeps, guarded by liars who whisper of destiny but treat her like coin to be spent.

When her enemies draw near, Emma flees across the sea to Denmark. There, she finds no peace, only more plots. King Sweyn Forkbeard sees in her a weapon to wield, a prize to marry to his young and untested son Canute. But the journey to Jelling is long, and her escort is led by Askeladd, a mercenary with veiled motives. Among them is Thorfinn, a young warrior burdened by vengeance, tasked with guarding a princess who refuses to be protected.

As old empires die and new kings rise, Emma walks a knife's edge between pawn and player. The blood she's spilled cannot be undone, and the future she once killed for slips further from her reach. In the land of the Normanni, nothing is sacred... and none shall inherit without blood.

Note: This is a work of historical fiction. While vaguely inspired by the real Emma of Normandy, the events herein are wholly reimagined through the brutal, tragic lens of Vinland Saga. It contains graphic violence, mature themes, and a stylized prose reflective of its medieval setting.

The nameless gods - Ivar the boneless by SussurridiInchiostro
31 parts Complete
What if the legend of the nameless gods were true? Can there exist on earth a love so boundless that it reflects that of two deities? Ragnar, father of Ivar and his brothers, leads his children to a devastated village near Kattegat. Among the rubble of what remains of a house, little Ivar, only three years old, finds a baby girl still wrapped in swaddling clothes. She is taken to Kattegat, where she will grow up with the sons of Ragnar Lothbrok. But what fate awaits Ivar and the baby? Two best friends, bound by deep feelings, find themselves torn apart by betrayal: he betrays her, and she flees, helped by someone very close to Ivar. After years of absence, she returns with a new identity, new alliances and...two twin sons (All characters are by the original creators, except Tyra and others I will introduce. Not everything will follow the "Vikings" series faithfully.) I was persuaded to write this story because there are so few complete stories about Ivar, and none of them are exactly how I would like to read them. Although many are wonderful.

"Goddess of the Shieldmaiden" A Vikings x MCU Romance Crossover by Chris9417
17 parts Complete Mature
When Odin banishes his true firstborn daughter to the mortal realm, Hela Odinsdottir plummets from the sky and crashes into the world of Vikings. Stripped of her divine power and left with nothing but rage and pride, she awakens in Kattegat-wounded, furious, and fully mortal. There she is discovered by Lagertha, a shieldmaiden destined for greatness, who offers protection instead of fear. Lagertha has faced kings, rivals, and treachery, but never a fallen goddess with eyes like midnight and a heart trained for war. Despite their differences, a fierce connection forms: the mortal queen who refuses to bow and the goddess learning to bleed. As Hela begins to reclaim her strength, whispers of her presence reach beyond the mortal world. Asgard wants their lost weapon returned. Thor and Odin descend, threatening Kattegat with annihilation if Hela refuses to submit to her chains again. To save the woman who taught her the meaning of love, Hela must choose between the realm that betrayed her and the only soul who has ever seen her as more than death itself. Their passion could reshape destiny-or ignite a war the gods will not survive. A bold reimagining of Thor (2011) merged with Viking history and legend, where love defies the gods and a shieldmaiden captures the heart of the Goddess of Death. Content Warning: This story contains mature themes including violence, war, trauma, death, and the darker nature of power within both mortal and divine worlds. It also features an adult lesbian romance with explicit sexual content between consenting characters. Historical brutality, morally complex decisions, and intense emotional conflicts are present throughout. Reader discretion is advised, especially for those sensitive to depictions of battle injuries, divine punishment, and passionate relationships that include graphic intimacy.

Chaotic, Coldhearted, Evil. Raven black hair, ice blue eyes and a devilish stare that could freeze everything she had in sight. Njorun Noraide, Kattegat's archer, was feared by many, but not by the two known brothers. She was raised in the snow, her childhood had never been filled with warmth and love. Her father abused her, angry he didn't had a son instead. One day two young men walked in, cut the father to pieces and brought her to a safe heaven, Kattegat. She quickly picked up the talent of archery to defend herself and was finally free from her abusive father. She grew close to the two brothers, but sadly while hunting she ended up in a snowstorm. Stories spread she had died, people forgot about her, asking her name nobody could remember it... except the two brothers. Ragnar and Rollo Lothbrok were determined to find their old childhood friend, seeking the area for years, until they started raiding the western for the third time, both recognizing the bright blue eyes they remembered as no other, imprisoned by the English.
