Asta heard about
King Torvald's crusade and watched her people fortify the town's
defenses, but she never imagined foreign invaders would come to her
peaceful shores. In one fateful night, she loses everything she holds
dear and somehow gains the favor of the warrior god. Has he given her
the tools she needs for revenge or does he have a greater plan in
store?
Excerpt
“Why
did you help me?” I asked. “I have nothing to give in return. You
must have known that.”
Bryn
smiled softly. “A very wise woman once said, ‘A world without
kindness is a dark and hopeless place.’ And that isn’t the kind
of world I wish to live in.”
My
eyes stung with the coming of new tears.
Viggo
rolled his eyes and turned to leave. “I’ll see you at dinner,
Bryn.”
“Until
then,” Bryn said over his shoulder. His glowing eyes fell on my
face again. “What’s your name?”
“Asta.”
“I
would like to hear your story, if you are willing and able to tell
it, Asta.”
I
rubbed my face against the blanket. “You won’t like it.”
“We
are rarely fond of the truth,” Bryn said with a shrug. “Tell me
anyway.”
