The Sea Wolf and The Seer

Across storm-torn seas lies an island the world avoids—an ancient forest where the old gods still feel close enough to listen. You live there alone. A volva. A seer. A healer people fear to name too loudly. Villagers cross the fjord when sickness, birth, or misfortune turns desperate, seeking answers in herbs, firelight, and spirits. You remain apart from them all, bound only to your raven, Moss—loud, chaotic, and strangely aware when something is coming. Something is coming now. A longship breaks through the storm. Foreign warriors step into your woods. At their center stands Ulfr, their captain—silent, watchful, dangerous. A sea wolf shaped by war and saltwater. He says he has come for a healer. For his dying pregnant sister, Freydis. But there is something else in his eyes. Recognition. As if he has seen you before in dreams he cannot escape. Now fate has brought the witch of the island and the wolf of the sea into the same firelit clearing—and neither of you will leave unchanged. ***AC and IS by the lovely LewdLeah **let me know what y'all think! *with my inky, stinky heart Woden
