《VIKING PRINCESS》Chapter Seventeen

She was sat on the stairs of the room they had King Ecbert caged in. She was next to Ubbe which wasn't far from the hung cage. "We have to decide what to do with King Ecbert!" "I don't understand. What is there to discuss? We blood eagle him. Ecbert is as guilty as Aelle, so we should do the same thing to him."
She heard Ivar say as she looked up and rolled her eyes. "I've told you this many times. I was here! I saw Ecbert hand father over to King Aelle." Ivar said as Bjorn began to noticeably get annoyed.
She put a hand on Hvitserk arm as Bjorn said "we all understand those feelings, Ivar. No one is denying, what you are saying. But sometimes, sometimes. We have to consider things beyond our feelings." "Thank you, Bjorn."
She agreed with what her brother was saying. "And think what is best for our people!" "I know what our people want, Bjorn. And they want what I want." "Are you even hearing yourself, Ivar!" She said to him as he looked at her.
"I know what they want, Sister. Nothing will change my mind." "We have to consider our position of strength. And use that to our ultimate advantage!" Bjorn Said to him again but then Ivar started to laugh.
"You always like to complicate things, Bjorn. You think it makes you look clever." She had enough of Ivars attitude and got up. She moved to Sigurd and whispered to him.
"When they are done being children, come find me." She said and patted his shoulder and with that left. She found a seat and sat alone outside. She watched others talk amongst themselves.
She saw Sigurd sit next to her. "What did they say, Brother?" She asked moving to face him. He smiled and said "he said he would give us full claim of land." She took his hands in hers and looked him in the eyes.

"Do you trust King Ecbert." "As much as you do, Sister." He said then got up to follow Bjorn. All the others gathered into a room with King Ecbert. She stood between Sigurd and Hvitserk. King Ecbert and his helper were talking in their language as she stood their bored.
"Bjorn Ironside, Son of Ragnar. I, King Ecbert, give you the right to settle the Lands of East Anglia. And I pray you succeed. And now. I have a final journey to take." They all watched him leave and they all looked at the paper in awe.

Viceroy's Pride
This story could be about the Tellask Empire, ruler of a thousand suns and faced with imminent peril at the hands of the Orakh hordes. It could be about Paltai Amberell, the scion of a noble elven House, fallen upon hard times and seeking to find the key that will restore his family's name and save the Empire itself. It could be the story of his voidship, The Viceroy's Pride, powered by magic and crewed by a team of crack marines as they search for adventure and the solution to the Empire's myriad problems. Instead, this is the story of Daniel Thrush, human electrical engineer, befuddled researcher and survivor of the debacle that was first contact with a spacefaring civilization. Due to a combination of luck, magic, hard work, and more luck he is thrust into the center of events as Earth is shoved onto a much larger stage rife with semi-immortal elves and magical kingdoms that predate the Earthly invention of agriculture. Earth is outnumbered, and we have precisely one wizard. Dan. He's not very good at it, but he's going to have to learn in a hurry or watch everything he knows get torn apart by massive spacefaring empires straight from the pages of a fantasy novel. ---------- Some readers have noted that the MC tends to be weak willed and pushed around a bit. A significant portion of the story is his character growth into not being a pushover (i.e. him being passive is in the early chapters on purpose). I'm just including this caveat/warning to make sure that readers aren't surprised/upset and that they stick with it until he learns to stand up for himself. His arc begins to crystallize around chapters 25-27. If that's too long to wait, I get it, I'm just trying to do my due diligence and warn you that the character development is a bit of a slow burn. This is NOT a harem novel. Nothing against them, just not what it is. --------- Updates Monday, Wednesday, and Sunday Feel free to bother me on our discord- Discord!
8 167Artifice: Tools of the Gods
Near a remote mountain mining village, an infant is left in a circle of blue magical flames. Villagers from the nearby mining village of Porra-Kel find this infant and see that she is a Terran, a soul reincarnated from a different world. A world called Earth. The villagers choose to raise this child, which they name Salis, as one of their own. When Salis is older and learns the language of those around her, she finds out that Terrans have a reputation. One that means those in power will desire if they find her. The power of knowledge that could change the balance of the world. P.S. Hope you like the temporary cover.

8 251Into the Feywild
I've never considered myself to be much of a fighter. In fact, I had no notion what it was all about. I couldn't envision a war amongst people, especially my own. In this odd realm, a timid half-elf has little chance of success. Especially with minimal experience. I've only fought as a means of survival, self-defense, if you will. I had known only humans, so the concept of elven culture and family was foreign to me. And yet, here I am, in the midst of a tremendous battle between two Feys and a God. I never planned for things to turn out this way, or for me to get caught in the great shambles of war—a conflict between good and evil. My two companions are practically strangers to me, knowing nothing but my name. This journey was not something I had planned or wished for, but it was what the Gods gave me.◈ ◈ ◈Meli, a young half-elf traveling the Material Plane, is unexpectedly captured while on her travels, only to become a member of an odd group of individuals. Crane, an older wizard castaway from his college for practicing unnatural magic, and Kurky, a youthful and lively gnome who is as fascinating as they come. Meli's curiosity gets the better of her as she chooses to accompany them on their not so concrete journey into the Feywild. Little did they know of the constant war raging within this woodsy plane. Maybe Meli will discover everything she's been looking for, embracing love and pleasure along the way. Or perhaps she'll become a part of something bigger. © Copyright to EmmeMeadows 2021
