Valkyrie Black's world crumbled when she was cast onto the unforgiving streets as a child. Surviving alone and gifted by the ancient "Spark" AI system, a relic of a long-lost civilization, she sees the world differently than those around her. Armed with this ancient technology, Valkyrie wages a hidden battle against shadowy beasts while navigating the criminal underbelly of Durres city. With each adversary vanquished, she gains new insight, powers, and abilities. Set in a steampunk world rife with mafia intrigue, criminal guilds, and corrupt politicians, Valkyrie's journey is a tale of grit and innovation. Other books by Drew Archeron include Rejected Billionaire, The Huntress - Luna Eileen, and Civilian Dragon Lord *I own all rights and layers to my book cover.

Chapter 1: The Office
Dear Reader, This tale is told from the POV of Valkyrie Black. Many concepts are mentioned that maybe new concepts to you, might seem vague, or unique to her world. You will discover them as she discovers them. Please know that it is my intention to explore the world in detail but only as Valkyrie learns about it. Strap in, it's a wild ride. This is set in a fantasy world not too different from our own. Think 1900's and steampunk. Swords are still common place, daggers are a primary for most criminals, but pistols and other weapons are starting to become available. Horse and carriage is the standard mode of transport but here at the turn of the century, new travel such as cars and airships and novel concepts are becoming available but may not be exactly common place just yet. I promise you this, while there is some needed set up, once chapter 25 comes, and she sets off on her adventure, it is action-packed and edge of your seat the whole way through. Deadly adventure await you, shou

Valkyrie Black Authors note
Dear Readers, This has been one wild adventure and I am blessed to have been able to share it with you. This tale has now come to a conclusion and my contract for this book has run its 6-month course. It has been a long road, and so far its been a great experience. Valkyrie Black has some amazing readers but as we come to the end of this season, it will take a lot for my editor to be ready to sign an extension contract. While Valkyrie has a 10 star rating and amazing reviews, it just isnt where it needs to be right now as far as views. other books released in the same contest managed to get 3-5x as many views and subscribers. Sadly that means that for now, it just isnt resonating with the meganovel audience or, remains undiscovered. Hopefully, we will see Valkyrie again in the future but kinda like Tinkerbell, the readers will have to clap really loud to get my editor's attention to authorize a new season of this online exclusive novel. How to get an editor's attenti

The next day:Cade stood before the Watch Commander, Captain Argus, and Centurion Horen.“Final count is 158 men still fit for duty, 280 dead and 62 seriously injured. Most of the able bodies were among those that were holding the wall with crossbows. Those on the field rarely survived if they fell. Seven of the twelve knights are dead. I am sorry Captain Argus.”“They were good men, and died serving Suria in the greatest battle of their day.” Argus said, head bowed in grief.“What of our heroine and her friend?” the watch commander asked.“Healer Guerrero is still examining them. They, along with the twenty men that were in quads are still in strange shape. It seems that Captain Argus and I were more correctly disengaged from the quad mind, where Valkyrie and Alexa were not released from that. They remain in sword form.”“And that scath prince and the fire woman? What of them?” Cap

Fire erupted across the field as two spectra ingus sent balls of flaming death at a company of one hundred rune blade warriors. They were not part of a quad, but had the courage to charge the enemy as a team. The fireballs exploded in their midst, vaporizing five to eight men near the center and badly injuring those around them. Val pointed to the spectra scath and ordered a team of crossbowmen to fire. A hail of fifty deadly bolts shot out across the field. The fire scath threw up a wall of heat that deflected many of the bolts as their feathers melted off and their flight path went crazy. Thankfully, several still managed to find their target and the two fire scath were reduced to streamers of dark ichor. {Losses?} [50 silverbloods dead, 75 wounded. 375 still fighting fit.] came the robotic reply. Shit. This was just getting started and they were already down over 1/5th of their force. While the men were fighting admirably, each taking many scath with them before they died,

[System analysis complete.][Triskele defense system.][ Down-loading defense matric][ Defensive system available]The schematics began to flood Valkyrie’s mind and she began to grasp what was to happen.A commanding elite spark was to station themselves here on the tower. Warrior Sparks would take up position on the twelve pedestals below. Then average silverblood warriors could position themselves in teams of three around each knight.The Triskele was a hive mind and created a quad squad, one primary warrior with three swords. The central warriors spark would then take command of the entire unit, moving them in such tandem that it was beyond human understanding.They would no longer be individual soldiers and would have no will of their own. In that state, every fiber of being would belong to the quad. No self interest would exist or sense of self preservation. It would simply exist fulfil one directive, defend the fort as a

Valkyrie knew very little of the politics of Suria. She had dealt with the soldiers at fort Lorilis and her position as a Spark blessed as well as a student of Morgessa had given her some level of privilege or notoriety but she had never been in the chain of command, answering only to Morgessa and Desmond as mentors.Now, she had chosen to be bold and play on the myths and legends as she knew them. The Elite spark were renowned and the power of ones spark dictated a lot about a persons position in Surian society.However, She was not part of that hierarchy, at least not in the past few hundred years.Repeating what she had said before, she replied “I am General Valkyrie, Avatar of Azrael, First Spark of the Ori. You WILL arm your men and assemble the knights of this fortress. You have fifteen minutes to address the garrison and prepare for battle.”“Or what? Valkyrie General of the Ori? Girl, you are invoking the gods and your blasphemy

Cade turned to follow his centurion and Alexa up the stairs when he suddenly froze. It was just him and Valkyrie in the room. Well, Al-Lune snored his way through a log on the cot but otherwise they were alone.“You said Alexa was now Spark blessed… you called her Shadow slayer, or hunter… How? Who did you kill to take an elite spark from? Val, if you did kill those hunters and stole their spark,” he paused, trying to collect his thoughts, “I will kill you myself if you put her in danger like that. A stolen spark with a death sentence and she will be hunted the rest of her day’s till the council sees justice. Theft of a spark is one crime they will not tolerate at any level.”“How big is the bounty?” Val asked casually.“The bounty is sizable but Val, there is a whole order of hunter sparks that see it as a religious duty to hunt such traitors. The official sanction is all they need to pursue their in

“What? No! raise the alarm! The scath will be here any time!” Val yelled. “We saw no scath! You were standing there, and now the Commander has been shot! Healers! To the commanders! Guards, take these two to the brig until we can arrange transport back to Suria for trial.” Al Lune ordered. Val was seized by two large men and she watched as Alexa was also grabbed, “No! Lune! At Least sent out scouts! Go find the bodies of Carlson and his buddy!” “Yes, Yes. We will need the bodies of the other men these two have killed. Go send someone to collect the evidence of their treason against Suria.” “Bloody fuckin hell you are dense. Sound general quarters! There is a huge army of scath heading this way!” Val screamed as she was hauled into the fortress. While she might be able to fight one or two, where would she escape to? By now, scath would be blocking the mountain passage, and the only other way to go is through the fort to Suria! The soldiers around her looked worried and glanced over

A gunshot range out as the men got within shouting distance, the horse on the right going down hard in a heap. Its rider lept free and started running towards them.“Fuck that was impressive.” Val said as she swung down off her horse and drew her rune blade. “Possessor Scath. I see four.”The approaching man on horse back looked hard at them but nodded as they stepped aside and let him ride on. His companion rushed up to them on foot.“For Suria, will you help me hold them off? Carlson must get through and warn the watch commander!”“We will! We came to warn the commander too!” Alexa declared.Another gunshot sounded and Val spun to see the rider named Carlson slump off his horse and crash to the ground.“FUCK! For Suria!” The other man said as he drew his own rune blade and took position near Valkyrie.The four possessed mercenaries crashed into them with a ferocity Val had only seen in her worst thrasher fights. Thankfully with a skilled hunter and Alexa by her side, the three on fo

“That or the scath that created that vortex killed everyone off.” Valkyrie replied somberly.There didn’t seem to be scath around but they had been in the previous town. Maybe they were massing somewhere nearby.“Its dark, and this trunk is heavy. Lets go to the inn and then we can see about getting a different pack, maybe some hiking packs and ship the rest of this back to Durres.” Alexa suggested.They made their way to the inn and lugged the trunk up the steps of the one building in town that had any light sources. As they pushed the door up, an innkeeper came around the counter to greet them.“Ah, I didn’t expect anyone this evening. You from Vintas?” the innkeeper asked, then his eyes went wide, “You two ok? You look like you were run over by a herd of horses!”“Accident on the way here. Got caught in a tornado. As for where we are from, Durres,” Valkyrie replied.“Impressive you made it this far. Come on in. lets get you taken care of. KATE!” The innkeep called to a teen age gir
