***
L'histoire de Radnor avait commencé plusieurs étés auparavant, au cours d'une autre bataille cruelle et lointaine à travers le grand océan. Cela se passa dans un merveilleux pays reculé et conquis par Zark le Vikinn, l'intrépide guerrier venu du Nord.
***
Zark était le chef du grand clan des peuples nordiques qui s'appelaient eux-mêmes les Vikinns, qui se reconnaissaient comme les enfants des dieux du Nord, descendus des centaines d'années auparavant des lumières de la nuit dans le ciel hivernal. Les Vikinns étaient un peuple simple, mais robuste. Tomber sur eux au cours d’une bataille dévoilait leur côté féroce. Les Vikinns étaient des guerriers intrépides et des marins courageux, osant explorer les terres et océans froids par-delà la brume marine, au-delà de leurs rivages. L'épouse de Zark, Vilgren, avait choisi de l'épouser à 19 ans. À cet âge, la coutume imposait à toutes les jeunes filles Vikinn de maîtriser, de manière égale, les arts de la guerre et les arts de la maison. Dès le jour de leur mariage, sa femme devint le meilleur des compagnons de guerre de Zark. Le couple létal combattait côte à côte dans chaque bataille, que ce soit pour défendre leur patrie ou dépouiller des royaumes étrangers de leur richesse et de leur vin. Les voyages en mer et les raids enneigés se remplissaient de gloire lorsque Vilgren narrait leurs exploits victorieux en chansons.
***
Les hordes cruelles appartenaient aux nombreuses tribus qui s’appelaient Monghols ou Khassars, et qui envahissaient toutes les terres des steppes du sud-est en revendiquant tout ce qui n’était pas à eux. Quant aux Vikinns, la terre leur appartenait et seul Auden pouvait la leur ôter. Cet assaut était une attaque personnelle et en tant que chef, Zark fut le premier à participer à la réunion malheureuse. les Monghols pratiquaient la tradition d'usurper les terres en imposant froidement aux chefs vaincus de s’occuper des terres qu'ils venaient de perdre - amer, mais pratique.
Ainsi, les chefs vaincus devaient servir de dirigeants locaux nommés par les Monghols, et leur rôle consistait principalement à rendre compte des personnes et des biens se trouvant sur le territoire conquis. Ils étaient également responsables de la préparation et de la remise du paiement de la taxe annuelle : un dixième de tout ce que la terre possédait, y compris les personnes et les biens. Chaque année, la même procédure : un dixième de la population masculine totale devait rejoindre les troupes des Monghols et devenir eux-mêmes Monghols. Un dixième des femmes devait rejoindre les yourtes des Monghols, et les enfants dont la taille était supérieure à la longueur de l'épée d'un Monghol enfoncée dans le sol devaient accompagner les femmes.
Enfin, un dixième de tous les biens qui se trouvaient dans le pays devenait chaque année la proie des envahisseurs grotesques ; année après année. Il n'y avait aucun moyen de cacher quoi que ce soit. Les Monghols avaient des espions partout et leur châtiment était sans pitié. Contrairement aux Vikinns qui enseignaient aux leurs à s'immerger dans la culture des terres conquises, les Monghols eux, mélangeaient une multitude de tribus et de confessions différentes, et ne laissaient jamais derrière eux l'un des leurs pour gouverner les territoires conquis. C'étaient leurs traditions.
***
Zark devait mener sa frappe contre les Monghols à mi-chemin. Vilgren le rejoignit, tout comme Radnor, qui, à l'âge de 7 ans, était déjà bien entraîné au combat avec différentes armes. Il était devenu adepte de l'arc, de l'épée, du poignard et de son outil favori, le fléau. Il méprisait la fronde et les pierres, et plus tard, il en paierait le prix par un tournant complet dans sa vie.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast.

Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Story
Ashley Perrin is fresh out of college and starting a job as a community liaison for the Third District–the city’s only sector with more alien residents than humans. Ashley’s barely found where the paper clips are kept when she’s beset with constituent complaints–from too much noise at the Annual Lupidian Celebration Parade to a trip-and-fall chicken to a very particular type of alien hornet that threatens the very city itself. And if that’s not terrifying enough, Ashley is next up at the office karaoke night.
