Cimmerian around the clock (Story for Rudra)

Headless King (Reloaded)

Describing my father is one of the hardest tasks I ever had. All I have about him were good memories and very fond feelings. People said he is the total opposite of my grandfather. Dad was a quiet, kind man who loved to smile and enjoy the maiden songs at night. Grandfather was a noisy …

Viking Charge (reloaded)

Shipwrecked against the pearly shore of the foreign island. Trees were dancing, full of wind that shook their voluminous crowns, absent life, right there on the stone ridge where our flags flapper proudly.
