Novel & Cerita Vikings #athelstan

he leaned back on the sofa, his eyes looking up and to the left as if remembering. “It happened during the battle of Maldon. I was a Viking, one of the few black Vikings. My lineage went back through the Viking god, Odin, and so I was very respected. A warrior in those days fought till the death, and I was no different. We were not fighting a holy war, looking for vengeance, or any other noble means. We were out to claim land for the Olaf. Plain and simple, we were bloodthirsty warriors.

What then is the thing inside me that has been talking to me all these while? Oh my goodness! Things are far too complicated for me to understand. I kept my tone neutral. “You speak of Thorne like a fugitive. Wasn’t he once one of you?” The table went still. Even Kaelric stopped smiling. “You shouldn’t concern yourself with that, small wolf." He said. Shabari murmured, “The Red Vikings sent word this night. They confirmed they don’t have Thorne. Which means-” “-he’s vanished,” Vashti cut in. “Even better.”

Amris had always been in charge of Aislin's journey to Althea, and Athelstan knew that the only person to entrust that message to could be him. "Your Highness," said the knight with his back straight. Gray hair was pulled back, dark eyes peered at him. He was taller than Athelstan and much more muscular. The golden skin was hidden by the iron of the armor, as well as the multiple scars of the various clashes from which he emerged victorious. "I must give you a mission," Athelstan declared.

In 392 BC the clan of the Tagrans went to battle with the Ashatans and was almost defeated because of their small size compared to that of the Ashatans. No clan had been known to ever defeat the Ashatan's Vikings, the most ruthless barbarian clan. They were large in number and possessed a large amount of weaponry, rumor said, their king was one of the sons of the king of the underworld. The Tagran clan who had never gone to war and was known for their peaceful settlement stood their ground and fought with all they had, not ready to give away their land to the Ashatan barbarians.

I cannot believe the gods would forsake us at this point and allow your father's depravity to win. Ulfhild's lips trembled slightly before she firmed them once more and he knew that she had heard him. He was about to say more when he scented something unexpected on the ocean breeze. Wolves. And, not just any wolves, but Sköll wolves. He stood tall trying to see over the crowd, and, suddenly, there they were. Huge wolves, fangs bared, running full tilt down the beach alongside an entire contingent of Viking warriors, Erik and Birger in the lead.

“The exact numbers present at the battle is unknown; a few days ago, they estimated are around 10,000 for Segwaren and about 7,000 for Halstern. The composition of the forces is clearer; the Draumet army was composed almost entirely of infantry and had few archers, whereas only about half of the invading force was infantry, the rest split equally between cavalry and archers. Halstern appears to have tried to surprise Segwaren, but scouts found his army and reported its arrival to Segwaren, who marched from Kaihon to the battlefield to confront Halstern. The battle lasted from about 9 am to dusk. Early efforts of the invaders to break the Draumet battle lines had little effect; therefore, the

their hands and looked at the place they had chosen. He put them in their number and then returned to the altar. Ragnar saw that Strybjorn was ahead, then Sven, then Kjel. Between him and his comrades, there were others. "Forward to the altar," Ranek said. Strybjorn stepped forward. His face was pale but determined. He knew there were aisles waiting for him, waiting for his answer. He would show no fear. Hate fought in admiration for the bravery of the Grimskull at Ragnar as he watched Strybjorn's steady step. Strybjorn knelt before the altar and rose proudly to take Wulfen's chalice with a firm hand. He raised it to his lips, threw back his head and drank. Ranek had to reach forward and pu

I take a deep breathe slowly, wishing someone would join us and I don’t have to feel this atmosphere alone. ……………. Now there are 8 of us sitting here. Introduced each other and a little jokes to crack the stranger’s feelings among us. I saw that guy in front of me, he is Ivan, seems humble and nice, not kind of overbearing person- just like the first guy I met here-. Then the guy at the edge of this table, Arthur, he’s the tiniest in comparison to the other guy here. He has fair skin with knee-length shorts and wearing glasses, well he looks casual even though he was the one who said that maybe we have to consider re-schedule the meeting due the rain hasn’t stopped in his place. For that rea

Turning towards his men, He cries out, “RETREAT!!!!” Everyone instantly catches up with his order. Picking up the severely injured men on their shoulders, the able ones run towards the ship. Noticing them fleeing from the battleground, The vikings try to charge at them first under their king’s signal. But then Ario, who can see from far, charges at them with his all might. He unleashes his power, causing the viking to lose their sights temporarily. Tolas also lends him his power by killing the blinded vikings on the spot.

Unlike the others, he is wearing breeches, not a kilt. A strange feeling jolts through me. Recognition, perhaps, though I am sure we’ve never met. Ethan stiffens. Duncan sits down at the empty seat at the left hand side of the table, and my attention flicks back to where it should be right now. The Wolf King. There’s something predatory in his gaze as he looks me up and down. His kilt is the same color green as Vladimir’s. Ethan implied that Vladimir’s whole clan was horrible. Yet when Ethan spoke of the king, his voice softened.
