Stories from Väruld
Stories from the world of Väruld.
Whispers of poems, fragments of lore, and echoes of distant journeys. Some tales unfold in moments, others across many paths. Voices shaped by AI bring the realm to life — diverse, timeless, and just beyond the veil of reality. Updated weekly.
Väruld is a fantasy world I have created, which also includes books with detailed descriptions and novels.
All stories (unless otherwise stated) are written by me, Désirée Nordlund.

Avug's saga, chapter 1
Avug's Saga
Three minutes at the edge of awakening: Avug lies sleepless after a night of work and punishment, caught between who she is told to be and who she feels she might become.
In a world where some are born to obey and others to rule, her questions are the first sparks of quiet rebellion, stirred by forbidden machines and family secrets.
The first chapter of four in Avug’s saga; a short-story where duty cracks, and the hidden gears of change begin to turn.
