It is set in a medieval world and draws very loose inspiration from Norse mythology. The story is told from a third-person perspective, primarily following the main character, Erik. However, there will be occasional chapters, which will have perspectives of other characters.I hope you enjoy the journey, and I would love to see what you think about it.Please keep in mind that there are violent and graphic scenes, so this is a fiction for adults.Patreon: N.
