《How I Became A Jarl》Skyge’s Routine
Advertisement
My name is Skyge and I am a shadow wolf! My master is Eric. He is a human who was blessed by a god. Since he is my master I also was blessed by the same god, Loki.
My master went on many adventures where I accompanied him. He was fighting against the cultists who praised the moon. He won against a monster created by a god! He fought in a war against a rebelling city and freed his friend from slavery by fighting in an arena! And now he has become a Jarl of Dalir village.
He is too busy in the village to go on adventures. Of course, I am busy too! My day began with waking up my master by jumping at him in my bigger form. He always wakes up after that! After a yummy breakfast, he lets me out so I often go to the other side of the island over the mountain to chase the boars. It’s a lot of fun. I need to take my master's with me one day.
When I come back to the village I help Eric’s dear friend Hakon with training the wolfs. Since I am the biggest and the strongest they all respect me and listen to my commands. Some even try to impress me hoping they would join my pack. Unfortunately for them, only Eric can decide that. He is the leader of our pack. Without my help, Hakon would have a hard time training them.
Those training sessions are really tiering for me… So I would often lay down and just rest but it’s summer and it’s too hot for me. Even sleeping under a tree is not enough! It’s hot in the shadows! Luckily I found a small pond near the mountain. When I’m there weird red “thingis” come out and watch me. They are almost see-through. After a few days when I came, they were dancing around me.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t lay there for a whole day! I knew when the time came once I could hear the sound of wood striking against another wood. My master began training with his pupils!
He trains two humans. A boy named Dian. We met him on our journey to find a special person. This was the quest given by Loki. We thought that Dian was this special person because he was blessed by a God but he is from this world not like my master who was brought here from the place he calls England. Dian is a good person and his dream is to become a hero like my master. Before he can become one he needs to be strong!
The other human is actually a part of our family. Her name is Stella and she calls Eric an uncle. They are not related but Eric took her under his wing. We found out that she is a Valkyrie and she is really strong for a child. Because of her role given by the gods, she also is training, and if I’m being honest… Dian will never be as strong as Stella but he will be called Hero faster than her.
Sometimes I help them train! I love that! We’re running around. Pulling a rope and I always win! Their training is so intense that I usually am the first to lie down and rest. But then I join them again! Sometimes they train so long that I need to remind Eric that I need to eat from time to time! So after training, we went back to our house where I ate and suddenly when I opened my eyes the next day came!
Of course, it isn’t always the same. Sometimes my master is so busy helping in the village that I have to sleep for the whole day. Then Stella comes to the rescue and we go to the other side of the island. We hunt together! We chase boars together! We had so much fun!
I’m the luckiest shadow wolf alive!

This is the world that Esterian is born into. After learning of his father’s death at the hands of one known only as the 'Shadow of Heaven', he vows vengeance. But there are other forces at work as well. The rulers of the land, beings of unimaginable power known only as the ‘Holy Ones’ would twist Esterian’s rage to serve their own perverted motives. So too would the band of rebels called Advaitha, shrouded in mystery, their seemingly noble motive of reclaiming the world for man hiding a much darker agenda.

Lawman.
Lawman follows the exploits of Relovan, a Human Police Enforcer stationed on the BlargonianPlanets – a series of small planets on which pure Essence is mined, and refined into fuel. On hisday off, he finds himself and his fellow Enforcers caught up in a fight between two Void Lords,beings of immense power, who answer only to the Council, after the pair of Void Lords touchdown on the Station, seeking to refuel their respective Void Walkers. In the ensuing clash,Relovan punches above his weight and subdues a number of Void Knights – those in the serviceof the Void Lords – before becoming directly involved in the confrontation between the VoidLords themselves. His performance during the incident catches the attention of the current PoliceChief, Nura, who essentially takes him under his wing, and assists him in various ways,including when he is summoned to answer before the Council for getting involved in the spatbetween the two Void Lords. The book ends after the conclusion of the Hearing.Relovan is a stickler for the Law – something that prompted him to learn not only the laws ofvarious territories and planetary systems, but also the native languages and customs, so as touphold the law as best he can. As a highly trained, and immensely skilled former soldier,Relovan’s abilities along with his latent talent regarding the use of Essence, allow him to hangwith beings infinitely more powerful than him. Lawman is a full length manuscript that I will likely self publish once I have the artwork for it.
