The Dark Cry of Aristid
The Witch Meets Game of Thrones
A forgotten village strikes a desperate bargain - and brings down the wrath of the gods.
The village of Elta was once the first protection against giant attacks in the kingdom. But since the threat has been extinguished, the village has been forgotten ... just when the villagers need protection the most.
A late summer hailstorm destroys the crops and livestock that will take Elta through the winter.
The White Citadel refuses aid. To stave off starvation, the local midwife turns to witchcraft forbidden by the Allfather. Lofn summons an ancient entity by accident.
She is found guilty and sentenced to execution. When her burning at the stake goes horribly awry. The investigative arm of the White Citadel dispatches the magistrate during Elta’s endless night and it ignites a civil war and threatens to start a war between the gods.
The Dark Cry of Aristid is based on Norse mythology and folklore. For readers of Tolkien, Glen Cook, and Grimdark adventures.
