I'd like to remind everyone that this is not the place to be an asshole. If you want to be an asshole, there are plenty of places out on the internet to go do that. As mentioned above, I've been on the road for two weeks bouncing between far off places with layovers in stupid out of the way places to save a few bucks on tickets per company policy.

All hands to action stations.” Pytheas’s voice came fr

Well, something bugged.. this arrived 2.5 hours too soon. Chapter 2 will be next week.

Justin The sky had taken on that heavy feeling that meant the storm was no longer something that might pass north of them. Justin had been watching the pressure change for the last candlemark, the way the wind dropped and then shifted so that the cold came in under the pines rather than over them, and the animal-emotions that usually threaded the undergrowth had gone thin and distant. He was close enough to a small Ranger’s Nook that the weather should not have mattered, but the forecast h

Orphaned woodsman Oleg knows how to survive a northern winter, but not why his father marked him with a magical blue crescent. But when a wounded noble begs for shelter and armed riders recoil from Oleg's mark, a savage blizzard traps them together—until two more desperate boys appear beneath his cabin. Now four strangers must choose whom to trust as the hunters return, and Oleg must risk his home and his life for the boy who's making him want more than survival.

Thanks for reading and commenting. I really appreciate it, and I'm glad you all enjoyed it so far. I will say, though, I didn't put it in the story note, that this is a much expanded story from a flash fiction chapter that people liked and asked me to expand.

Thanks for pulling this all together @Valkyrie !! And thanks to the review team! @Valkyrie, @Lee Wilson, @Parker Owensand @Gary L

Next week 😍
