I have been waiting for this. Your Gauir Stories always exciting to read.

I wonder what the dreams portend?

Very well written, easy to follow, and a lot packed in a short amount of words. My favorite style of writing. I want a pet Raven.

Great opening chapter! The dream sequence opening was very effective -- a breath of relief when Gaiur wakes up and we know it is a dream, but now with the tension of knowing that these atrocities may be in her future..

I’ve read a lot of Viking or Viking-adjacent stories, and the vast majority are forgettable. But this one’s been stuck in my head since I read it shortly after it published, so well done to you! I’m excited for the next chapter.

An amazing brutal story, biting with intensity, you painted a great one here, the world both savage and hauntingly beautiful.

This is brilliant! So guttural and vivid. Couldn’t pull myself away. Can’t wait till I find a snatch of time to move to the next chapter.
