Izzoradelle, the Drowned Shieldmaiden Part III: The Serpent
This is a series that I wrote over a year ago while playing on a Valheim community server. The stories have been edited to remove some player tags and player clans to provide privacy to those individuals. If you wish to experience this breathtaking world for yourself, you can check out the official Valheim website here or download the game on Steam here. And no, I'm not sponsored. I just love this game! (:

LEFT TO DIE
"Mommy the stranger is awake!" The little boy shouted as he made his way to the kitchen to inform his mother that the lady she had carried last night had regained her consciousness. " Is that why you want to break those feeble legs of yours? Well, go back to the Parlor. Will be there shortly." Were his mother's remarks. But the boy could not go back. Had his mother warned him of socializing with strangers? Wasn't she the one who had taught him how dangerous the strangers in his neighborhood were and could be? How kidnapping was a Common Narrative in his village. Never. Not even in his dead body was he going back to the seating room without her mother.

Its only discernible feature was skin textured like bark that shimmered depending on its proximity to the foliage.

At the Waterfall
Two elderly ladies meet every Saturday with a surprise picnic basket. They say opposites attract. In the case of these two long-term friends, it certainly was the case. Eva, now seventy-three and gradually going deaf is a quiet, deep-thinking, sometimes rather serious little old lady. Behind her quiet exterior lies a heart of pure gold and a wickedly good dry sense of humour. A great reader, but her overriding passion is being in the great outdoors. So meeting landowner Viv, at a library fund-raiser was a godsend. That was forty years ago.
