Viking
Born in the arms of the fjord. This was his home. Always had been.
A great warrior who had fought many battles, experienced many raids, and explored many foreign lands.
Up here at the top of the fjord, he now stood and looked down.
A strong wind from the east blew the salty sea air into his face that had been marked by it over the years. His long braided beard blew in the wind.
From the slopes of the fjord the smell of wood, grass and wild mint. An earthy yet fresh smell that he loved so much.
He soaked up the smell and gazed into the fjord.
The dragon boats that lay at anchor down there swayed about like sea serpents in the raging sea. He could see the whitecaps of the waves all the way up here. The fjord was known for its calm waters but today a storm was brewing.
He lifted his gaze, out to the wild sea.
Clouds black as Odin's ravens approached. Lightning lit up the dark sky and a loud rumble of thunder could be heard in the distance.
He smiled as the thunder came closer. Thor wielding his hammer Mjölnir delighted his ears and his heart. This was where he was born, this was where he was at home, and this was where he was going to enter Valhalla.
At this moment as one with nature.
In that moment he was a Viking

The Empire
Sunset. A straight wide street, paved with large smooth stones. Built by those master builders who have so shaped the landscape of the south. Cypress trees stand at even intervals at the edge of the road. Around it only lush green meadows.
Grass and cypresses...
