About... The Death of Innocence


In 1993, thirteen-year-old Trace Williams finds himself racing down a dark alleyway. His heart was about to burst through his chest. Someone was chasing him. 
His attacker catches him, and he lifts him into the air. From somewhere, he hears his mother's voice call out, "Trace! Wake up."
But he could not awaken. He was trapped in the darkness of a dream. But it was not a dream, not really. Niorun, the Goddess of Dreams has taken his consciousness from his body and projected it into the body of a fourteen-year-old girl. 
Trace felt the knife, and he writhed in pain. 
Finally, his mother awakens him, but not before he felt the pain of being murdered by an evil man.
Niorun watched from above, and she asked Verdandi, the Goddess of Fate, why it was necessary for the boy to suffer the death of another. Verdandi replied that it was the boy's fate, for something was planned that was more important than The Death of His Innocence.

About... The Viking King and His Sword

The year is 1505, and K'reig the Invincible sits on his warhorse at the edge of what is soon to be a bloody battlefield on the northwestern tip of the British Isles. Behind him is his army, a small band of enslaved villagers from the last settlement he raided. In front was the next town he intended to conquer with the plan to enslave the men who survived the battle. His goal was to build an army and continue his conquest.
The age of the Viking Gods has passed, but K'reig's followers are convinced he is one of the Gods, the brother of Thor. They have witnessed his miraculous recovery from mortal wounds.
In truth, K'reig is not a God. Although he does have powers, he is an imposter. He has played on their superstitions. 
The Viking God Hel, the Goddess of Death, is not happy. And neither is Verdandi who is the Goddess of Fate.
Together, Death and Fate empower a Seer, and he arrives at the village before the battle. The Seer has an advantage to stop the imposter K'reig, but K'reig is a formidable foe.
And the battle begins. 
The Viking King is the second short story in The Stranger series. The first story is The Incident.
