《Vikings, Mini Drabbles》Hvitserk: Losing the baby
Advertisement
You promised him to bring some food over and you kind of regretted it as soon as you arrived after a good hike through the forest. 'Next time you choose a spot to go hunting, don't do it here.' You pointed to the hunting cabin. Ubbe softly laughed before your eyes traveled to Hvitserk walking over to you. But he didn't kiss you first like he normally would do, he crouched down to kiss your belly. You gave Ubbe a promising look before looking back down to Hvitserk. 'What is he or she saying, that you need to give me some attention to?' You asked, loving the sight of Hvitserk being so draw in with your unborn child. He looked up, smiling like the idiot he sometimes was before getting up. 'Maybe.' He whispered. His fingers felt so light under your chin, just as his lips did. You stroke your fingers over his cheek, totally in love smiling up to him. 'Thank you for this.' He thanked you, snuggling his nose against your neck. You giggled, slapping him on his shoulder before turning towards Ubbe and the other brothers. 'I hope it is any good.' You started, offering them your self-made food. 'Anything you make is good.' Hvitserk stated from behind you, pushing his nose in your hair. 'Will you stop.' You smiled, preparing on leaving again. 'Be safe.' 'I always am, come home tonight.' You answered. 'I always do.' He winked, kissing your forehead before you left.
It was somewhere halfway the walk back that you fell, causing a sharp pain to turn your world upside down as you started bleeding. You never where pregnant before but every woman knew the signs of a miss carriage if they came, this was that and you panics as you felt your belly contract with pain. You were alone, in a forest, too far away from Hvitserk to ask for help, too far away from Kattegat also. Nothing in that moment saved you as your dress started to color red under the loss of a child that wasn't able to live. You always dreamt about it, how she or he would shout his first cry. First smile, first walk. All of that shattered in the pain forcing that child out. You couldn't stop your body, you couldn't stop the time and all it did on the end was leaving you there alone in the first, hands covered with blood, hardly being able to move as you cried over the loss.

It became hours, you had so much pain that you weren't able to move from that tree you were sitting against. You tried rubbing your blooded hands clean when the darkness fell and you heard their voices. Ubbe was walking in front, leading the way with his jokes while his two other brothers carried Ivar. He almost didn't saw you sitting there because of that joke that made the other laugh out loud. 'Y/n.' And that just stopped the whole party. You shifted your look towards Hvitserk who immediately abandoned Ivar to run over to you. When he saw the blood on your dress and hands, his eyes turned concerned, looking for any wounds. 'What happened?' He asked concerned, tilting your head a little up to wipe away your tears. 'I fell.' You whispered. You followed in a sob. You turned your head away, sobbing while he just fell silent in your words. 'Are you in pain?' Ubbe asked carefully, crouching down beside you. You nodded, feeling how Hvitserk laid his hand on your shoulder, scouring his thumb over your neck. 'I'm so sorry Hvitserk.' You fell out in tears. He pulled your head into his arms and you started to cry against his shoulder. 'I imagined myself he would be like you.' 'Shhhttt, Y/n.' He comforted you in his own pain. You grabbed his tunic and pulled away from him, looking up into his own blurry eyes. 'What if I can't get pregnant anymore?' 'Don't think that.' He shook his head, contacting his forehead with yours. 'Even if you can't get pregnant again, I will keep loving you.' He whispered. 'This is my fault, what have I done.' You wanted to get away, from him, from everything but he pulled you back, cupping your face. 'Nothing is your fault, please my love.' He sounded so desperate. You shook your head and fell back into his arms. He helped you up, hardly knowing what to say or do for his imagine broke into thousand pieces to.

Core .001
This is a story of Shiro, a 12 year old girl who wished to adventure around the world. Only to end up in an untimely death. When she wakes up, she finds herself in what seems to be a new world, and her body has changed to that of a catkin. Using her knowledge from knowing literature of people in similar situations and adventuring, she tries to make a place for herself in this new world. Only to find out that reality is far crueler than one would imagine. Even with what one would call an OP unique skill and other OP advantages, she finds things quickly fall apart regardless how hard she tries. Thus she seeks more and more power to not only survive, but to protect what is important to her. Unbeknownst to her though, lies within her an ancient power time primordial. A power so vast it can bring anything to its knees. This ancient power can easily be unlocked with just one sentence, but this sentence shall never be spoken. Instead, Shiro will embark on a new path to gaining a new different kind of power as she moves forward in this new world. WARNING: The first few volumes will have tragedy, which will disappear at around Volume 5 or 6. From then on it will be just pure OP-ness and having fun. While I personally like OP characters and don’t like tragedies myself, I think it is unrealistic that a person goes to an unknown and everything just magically go their way via plot armor. So I wanted to build up a more realistic OP reincarnation novel where MC struggles through a new world regardless of their advantages due to gaps in knowledge (despite how prepared she was) and simply not having enough strength at the time. ------------------------------------------- This is my first poor attempt at a story. I read a lot of novels overall and was in the mood to see how well I can write one. Expect a lot of mistakes here and there as I am pretty new to writing. Releases should be about 2 times a week(changed due to chapter size pretty much doubling) unless stated otherwise or inbetween volumes. I will at least commit to finishing the volume I am on (Nothing worse than a story being cut off mid story). So give me your comments what you think. I don't mind if the comments are bad and etc. Just lay off the grammar nazi (My only weakness)

Thrilled to be freed from the shackles of monetary survival and societal expectations on Earth, she embraces her newfound existence and magical powers bestowed. But the rose-tinted fantasy life she always dreamed of turns out to be a stark reality that poses to kill her if she doesn't adapt and let go of her past.

While the entire series story has undergone major changes in the last year, all books have been planned since the beginning of writing. It is also my second wish to eventually make this story into a webcomic, either by myself or with a team if possible. Thank you for taking this journey with me, and enjoy reading! ( You can alternatively read books in the series as standalone fictions, but they connect to one another though a running theme and mystery that evolves and progresses with the main character. ) Alternate Blurb for the Singularity Cycle series: Essairyn had never felt truly alive on Earth. It felt like something was missing ever since she was born, but even after nearly 20 years of mundane living, she could never pinpoint what this or the emptiness in her heart was. Suddenly, she awakens in a grandiose, primordial forest and encounters mythical creatures beyond her restless imagination in a parallel world called Sol'h'meyr. She befriends, in particular, a sassy fox-spirit named Akari who reincarnated after three millennia. Essairyn is gifted with abnormal magic, and Akari is being chased by those of her dark past. Together, they set out on an adventure in a world more dangerous than its beautiful facade could hide. Finding new friends along a path riddled with tragedy, Essairyn must learn who to trust as deceit and betrayal lie behind kindly faces. Life in this deceptively promising world slowly spirals down a path of no return. This is not a game, but cruel reality. Her simple adventure became the modest beginnings in a chain of disruptions that tore even the dimensional fabric of time and space. No one, not even Essairyn, was who she thought they were. And not even the fickle gods could change the time-worn destiny of the universes... A single promise shook eternity’s existence.
