would you ever consider writing a prequel/another book set in this universe? i understand why u had to make the society collapse for narrative reasons but the world u built was so incredibly cool, some of my favorite parts of ur books were just learning ab
Yes, definitely.
In addition to pretty much everything I write taking place in various eras of this same universe, I have a whole series of novellas planned out that take place between Valhalla and Ragnarok that just luxuriate in expanding the world as it exists at the end of Book 1. All V Teams normal adventures for a year.
I very much hope the series gets popular enough to justify writing them and releasing them.

Whoa whoa whoa Valhalla is brutal but this is just fucked up. Even the Valkyries would never be so cruel to their victims.

Trying to design a dragonfly-kama Tikari. My experience with using kama is limited, but they’re my favorite to use, alongside nunchaku.

I saw Call Me By Your Name and found it to be good but very normal. It had nothing that really set it apart from the typical romance drama. Thinking back on this, I can’t help but consider the screenplay I’m working on right now, which is also a romance, but it’s a romance with mutagenic pollen, tentacled beasts, ravenous orgies, murder by injection with decomposing acid, massive mile tall hives of bee-termite-things that produce aphrodisiac honey, and of course, sex with mutant body parts and unnatural orifices. This is why I want to make movies. Because simply nobody else has ever made the things I need to see.
Sadly this romance movie of mine can probably never be made as it would be very expensive and get an NC-17 rating. This “50 Shades meets Avatar” film may never become reality. But at least you can read my novels. That’s what.

What advantages would a walking tikari, like a caterpillar, have over a flying one?
Size mostly, Varg’s centipede can become a broadsword and Balder’s caterpillar can become a hefty boomerang. They can crawl fast on any surface so they’re not all that much at a disadvantage, though antics ensue on Mars in Ragnarök for a while when the other tikaris have to carry Varg’s for a bit.

me *goes to a surgeon and slaps a wad of cash down on their desk*
i want you to carve out my sternum and make me a flying insect that turns into a knife
surgeon: wha-

#i just made a tikari sona #i really want a banded wooly caterpillar but they dont fly so id love a small moth #that turns into a sword or something #ari bach #valhalla by ari bach #ren.txt. #shitpost
Caterpillars are allowed, and have advantages over some flying Tikaris, if you should still want a woolly caterpillar.
So I had a thought: Cheesy Valhalla Valentines. The only one I can think of is: 'Valentine, I have a hole in my chest for you' but someone should take this idea and run with it.
Anyone want to take up the initiative on this one? ;)
