She was sat at the table as Ivar went to see Floki and Lagertha to god knows what. She had finished eating and got up as servants hurried to clean up.
She walked her way to the seamstress. "Is it ready." She asked the lady who had come to greet her. "it is." The lady said smiling as she grabbed the gown.
Grace smiled as tears fled to her eyes. She quickly wiped them away and took the dress. "Thank you." She told her as she walked out and to her room.
She put it on and admired the sewing and twirled. The door opened to Ubbe "This the dress, you told me about." He said as she stopped and smiled. "It looks great, dear sister." He told her as he patted her head.
"Me and Ivar will be talking about building an army." He told her as he went to the door. "Why can you not leave things be." She told him getting mad. "Mother said she didn't want revenge."
Ubbe just nodded along with what she said. "I heard her say it, I did, not you." She said as she then stormed past him as he started to feel guilty. "You look beautiful." She heard a voice say as she came to a stop. She turned slowly fearing the worst but saw Halfdan.
"Oh, thank you." She told him and walked away leaving him alone. "Sister." She heard a voice stop her again. "What do you want!" She shouted out of frustration and turned to see Hvitserk.
"I brought you a cloak, Sister." He said gently knowing she was aggravated. "What made you this angry." He said as he put the cloak on her and tied it. "Ubbe." He looked at her shocked "I thought you loved him."

She smiled and nodded. "At the moment, I do not. If you need me I'll be anywhere but here." She said walking away. "So you'll be near the forest!" He yelled a She turned and nodded.
Few minutes later Hvitserk came to her and said "Ubbe is getting married, come on." And dragged her by her hands to the ceremony. She was stood next to Ivar.
"Who gives this woman away to her new husband?" The lady asked as Hvitserk stepped up "I do." He gave her the ring to which she placed blood on her palm as well as the ring.
She gave the ring to Ubbe and he put it on Margrethe's finger. "And so I name you man and wife. And may the gods bless you, and give you children, and may they keep the wolf from the door." She said and put blood on their faces then they kissed.
She was happy for her brother as she knew her mother would be also. She started to clapped "And now, the bridal race!" She yelled and Ubbe and Hvitserk started their run.
They both tried to knock each other down. She was cheering on both of them and Ubbe won. She smiled as every man went to the feast. "Brother, I am beyond joyed for you." She told Ubbe and hugged him tightly.
"Soon it will be you." He told her smiling then left with the men. She started her walk out of the forest while smiling. Soon it as dark and she knew she should head to bed.
But then she saw Harald and Halfdan talking to guy near the boats. "Enough to know they are not as safe and secure as they think they are." She stopped and hid behind the closest home. "Go and make your plans." She heard Halfdan say.

She stopped listening and quietly made her way to her room. She felt she was going crazy by what she had heard. She thought about if she should tell her brothers and if she was safe.
"Sister." She heard from the door and she turned quickly. "Sigurd, what is it?" She asked as he nodded to outside. "The sacrifice." He said and she nodded. She had completely forgot about it.
Now she stood between Ubbe and Sigurd. She glanced and saw Harald and Halfdan and immediately started to feel unsafe. But she knew her brothers would die for her as she would them.

The Core: The First Guest (Book 1 of 3)
Book two starts here: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/46417/the-core-the-hive-daughter-book-2-of-3 --- Kevin was just a normal 10 year old kid until he saw a woman vanish right before his eyes. This made Kevin just a little bit different. He paid more attention to people now. Little did he know that this little difference would kill him the next time he encountered another alien about to return home. It would tear him apart, cell by cell, until he was unmade. His mind being transported away. So distantly far away there is a race that advanced to the point where they built dyson spheres to house their civilizations. In their continual expansion, they seeded galaxies with pods and connection satellites. Over time they upgraded their dyson spheres into matryoshka brain Cores. Imagine a computer powered by a star. Citizens of Cores no longer age once they upload their minds into the virtual living system of the Core. While they didn’t age, most still choose to cycle through life and death though at a different scale of time compared to our lives. Citizens can visit other planets and live there as if they were on a "vacation". Mercury is Earth’s hub connected to the closest Core and Earth is a remote vacation spot for wealthy citizens. When the main character was 10 he witnessed a citizen returning to the Core. The story continues 10 odd years later when he again witnesses a similar situation unfolding and manages to touch the person returning to the Core. This causes him to be swept up in the transfer as well and for his mind to join as a "Guest" user of the Core. As a Guest he has limited powers, a starting balance of zero cr or Citizen credits, and no idea how he can get home. He is the first human to ever become a Guest of a Core. Where money itself is the highest form of their science. --- Progress update: Progress update: COMPLETE Stories:✦The Core: The First Guest (The Core: Book 1 of 3) ✦The Core: The Hive Daughter (The Core: Book 2 of 3) The Core: The Hive Daughter (Book 2 of 3) | Royal Road Stories in PROGRESS:✦The Core: The Dark Enemy (The Core: Book 3 of 3)PROJECTED Stories and Series: ★The Radiative Zone Series: The Girl with Powers (3 book series) ✶The Convective Zone Series: Into the Game (3 book series) This series is a work in progress.

Welcome to the Upward Bound System, V.2
Technically abandoned. I will be reposting an updated version of the story one chapter at a time. When the System came to Earth, it changed everything. It is a grand thing used by gods and men alike. What had once been fantasy was now a reality. People believed and so that belief gave ideas the strength to manifest. "Welcome Founder of the SCP Foundation" It stirred the gods from their deathly slumbers. Stirred by an almost mechanical voice promising them new life, and followers as countless as the stars. All it asked of them was for their help. Help with what though? The old gods, the forgotten gods, and the new gods drew breath, and then made their voices heard. On a day like any other Dante was home from college watching the Presidential inauguration with his parents. Little did they know that this day would turn out to be anything but ordinary. That this was the day everything changed. Dante is not your typical MC. While he has a troubled past, he looks forward to the future. Follow Dante, his parents, and the new friends he meets along the way as they traverse this new system world. However, before they can explore this new world they must complete, the Tutorial. (Please note: This tutorial will be part of the story. Rather than a skim of the information, you will get to experience it in depth. So the tutorial will last a good while.) A much slower style of LitRpg than what you would normally find. Follow Dante and his party as they find their world taken over by the system. Welcome people of Earth to the Upward Bound System!... With the system's arrival so too does great danger come... The tools of your survival shall be granted upon you by the system... Please note, I don't own the art. Please enjoy the story, and if you don't please leave a comment and I will try to improve the story for you. This is the second version of this story, so feel free to check out the original and compare the two.
