Written for the Scifi Competitions 'Warriorpunk' competition, which I interpreted to be an edgier, more moderns sci-fi themed reboot of classic warrior and wizards style sci-fi/fantasy. https://www.wattpad.com/332114051-scifi-competitions-warriorpunk This is an interpretation of Beowulf as a cybernetically augmented mercenary in a fictional quadgalaxy. Leading his own team of interstellar VIKINGs (Violent Incident Key Interest Negotiation Group) Beo grapples with the traditional archetype and story arc of the old 'hero' tales, but finds that things are no longer that simple.

Used to destroy. Trained to assassinate. Kept alive to kill. Why?
