Deirdre O Cleirigh: The Rise of a Celtic Warrior

DustyOlivia
This story is historical fiction with a touch of magic. Viking raids began in the late 8th century, particularly in the Western Isles and the Northern Isles of what is now Scotland and with attacks on monasteries and coastal towns in what is now Ireland. This story follows Deirdre O Cleirigh, a young girl in the idyllic village of Ulster, who dreams of adventure and heroism beyond her modest upbringing. Growing up in a land threatened by Viking invaders, her childhood is shaped by tales of courage and resilience passed down through generations. As the Vikings attack, Deirdre's spirit emboldens throughout her turbulent youth; compelled by the need to protect her family and home, she becomes a skilled warrior. As the siege intensifies, she gathers a coalition of warriors and citizens, inspiring them with her unwavering resolve and leadership. The turning point comes when Deirdre realizes that victory can only be achieved through the unity of all the people of Ulster—not just her warriors. Rallying the citizens, she empowers them to join the fight, tapping into their shared heritage and strength. Together, with the aid of local druids and her innate tactical skills, they craft a counter-offensive strategy to reclaim their city and their country. In a climactic battle, Deirdre leads her forces against the Viking stronghold, demonstrating courage, tactical acumen, and the power of community. Despite heavy sacrifices, the united front of citizens and warriors overwhelms the Vikings, forcing them into retreat. As the dust settles, Deirdre stands as a triumphant leader—heart heavy with the cost of victory but filled with hope for the future. Through her journey, Deirdre transforms from a frightened girl into a revered leader, fostering a new order in Ulster dedicated to fairness and resilience. The story highlights themes of unity, sacrifice, and the strength found in community, establishing a foundation for lasting peace and the flourishing of Ulster under her leadership. This is her story.

A Wolf's Howl, A Fairy's Wing

This story is about love, revenge, the quest for power, and the right to exist. After being betrayed by his childhood crush and losing his loved ones to a human raid, Erik, a werewolf, ends up on another planet for seven years before he returns to a vastly changed, post-apocalyptic Earth. Originally a timid, unadventurous man, Erik has become far more dominant and assertive upon his return. Together with him comes his beloved but ruthless soul-bound partner and fairy, Elora, who wants Erik to rule and conquer with her by his side. Elora's presence alone makes Erik more powerful than others at this level, but will he find out what else makes him special? Follow them as they use the knowledge and strength they gained on Söl to navigate an Earth filled with magic, vampires, shapeshifters, and more. Along the way, Erik and Elora will meet a diverse cast of characters, some of whom Erik might have known in the past, and some he did not, but all with their own story and desires. Will Erik be able to take revenge for the betrayals of the past? And what else will he discover along the way? ****** Disclaimer: There will be some R18 scenes, but most of the time, they will be a part of character development and not simply smut. In other words, if you decide to skip them, you'll likely miss out on some character development, but I promise to keep plot development out of it. No NTR No Yuri (there might be interactions between girls when there is a scene with the MC and more than one woman, though the MC will always be the focus. To be clear, yuri means a romantic/physical relationship between two women, meaning no two women will ever have sexual interactions with each other without the MC present. That said, Elora enjoys serving women up to him on a platter, and watching him have sex with them. She enjoys dominating, observing. and playing with the other women in the MC's harem together with him, and thus will occasionally join him in such a way. I don't believe any of that is technically yuri, but I understand that my interpretation is debatable and if any of those things weird you out, I advice you to avoid this novel.)
