Noma is determined to find a new life. Sneaking off onto a traveling party, she is more than ready to leave everything behind in Norway and head for England. Only this ship isn't heading for England, and it's too late to back out. Noma must blend in and follow along as the Norsemen sail away with their sights on another island. Ireland. This journey isn't about proving herself in battle, but starting over in a foreign land surrounded by neighbors that don't care for her kind. Survival is the only thing Noma wants as she faces some new threats and learns of the natives culture.

Painted Blade || sihtric (1)
orenda (n.) a mystical force present in all people that empowers them to affect the world, or to effect change in their own lives. ------ The night Ragnar the Fearless and his family died was not only watched from afar by Uhtred Ragnarson, but also by the youngest daughter, Bemia Ragnarsdottir-a young girl who had to crawl on her hands and knees out of the burning hall, had to also watch in tears from the forest as her world was snatched out from under her. Uhtred had watched the attack, thinking only Thyra had survived, by being kidnapped. But little did he know that his youngest sister was running past him in the forest, desperate to get away. And she did. But the next part of her life was even worse, more traumatic than watching her family die before her eyes. Years later, Bemia had created a name for herself, created a reputation that was feared by most Danes and Saxons. Then she had finally found her brother again, and also a young warrior who she never thought she would fall for. -- Sihtric x fem OC! #1 thelastkingdom 30/06/2024 #1 finan 05/07/2024 #1 osferth 05/07/2024 #1 sihtrickjartansson 05/07/2024 #1 uhtred 05/07/2024 #1 sihtric 07/07/2024
The Ashes Wake
When Raiden is told by the Sage Witches he must kidnap Trifica Larkin for the sake of their world he sighs a bit, complains a bit more, but ultimately accepts the task-as he always does. Guilt has a funny way of making him feel obligated. However, this job isn't like all the others and not just because Trifica reminds Raiden of his old love who died centuries ago. This time, the job means all of creaturekind will perish if he fails. It doesn't help that along the way his ring-the sole item capable of keeping him alive-becomes broken, that a shadow wolf war is about to begin, or that their enemy seems to know horrible truths about himself he'd buried so deeply he had nearly forgotten. Trifica, however, finds herself quite pleased to be kidnapped. She's sick of being a Kalied, the second lowest of all species. She wants to flee from her mother's disapproving glare and if she has to travel with Raiden across the Realm as they try to avoid dying, so be it. Except the closer Trifica and Raiden get to the Sage Witches, where safety and answers await them, the more questions and danger they realize lies ahead.Complete
