That evening, Valkyrie stepped out of her room with her fiery red hair on full display she had opted for a more feminine black dress made from a thin and supple leather instead of her usual armored corset and reinforced pants.

It would be strange going into a potentially hostile casino with so little in the way of defense and a lack of weapons. However, she was never truly without weapons. She always had her wrist blade and hidden in her hair was a assortment of small knives, sharpened hair pins and a few vials of various poisons.

One that she was most proud of was a small vial with tiny pills in it. Each pill was sigil signed to activate under two conditions. First it had to be in contact with stomach acid and second was a mental command from her to actively release the ingredients. She would likely need to be within a few feet to trigger this, but is was something she could trick Tobi to ingest earlier in the evening and then use it if they happened to have a meeting later in the ev

  • 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

  • Chapter 158: The Battle of Uthril

    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

  • Chapter 156: Triskele

    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
