  The Völva’s Apprentice - A Norse...

  I had heard tales of women with secret knowledge and powers, but I never imagined that there would be one standing right in front of me. 
  “You’re a Völva?” the word rolled off my tongue strangely... 
  I only knew faintly what a Völva was. They were said to be strange women with strange powers. Not only could they protect and ward against ill omens, but they could also travel the realms and reach into places untapped by most humans. As such, they were often spoken of in whispers of both reverence and mystery. 
  “Yes, I am. And an old one at that,” she said, getting up from her chair. 
  It seemed so casual as if she was just talking about a mindless chore that she was doing. Like it was nothing special that she had just performed some form of magic right in front of me. 
  For two years, I learned everything I could on runes, protections, herbs, medicines, and anything else that Dagmar deemed necessary. In the few moments I had that were not dedicated to lessons from Dagmar, I would seek out Ivar for his quiet presence. There was just something about being near him that set my mind at ease. 
  All that consumed my thoughts was avengement and how close Ulrik was. Soon he would taste the bitter sting of defeat. 
  In the realms of Norse Mythology, a girl sets out to avenge her village only to meet a powerful teacher on her journey into the abyss of forbidden knowledge.

  NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! 
  “Savagery appeased can only grow. Once you give in to it, it must escalate, like a fire searching for air.” 
  The man who won the Pulitzer Prize for GLENGARRY GLEN ROSS, who wrote the classic films THE VERDICT and WAG THE DOG sounds his alarm about the Visigoths at our gates. 
  In RECESSIONAL he calls out, skewers, mocks, and, most importantly, dissects the virus of conformity which is now an existential threat to the West. 
  A broad-ranging journey through history, the Bible, and literature, RECESSIONAL examines how politics and cultural attitudes about rebellion have shifted in the United States in the last generation. By screaming down freedom of thought and expression, Mamet explains, we kill invention and democracy – the foundations of security and growth. 
  A wickedly funny, wistful and wry appeal to the free-thinking citizen, RECESSIONAL is a vital warning that if we don’t confront the cultural thuggery now, the commissars and their dupes will transform the Land of the Free into the dictatorship at which they aim.

  Saddam Hussein - Warmonger...

  Saddam Hussein, the sixth president of Iraq, held power from July 16, 1979, until his downfall on April 9, 2003. A central figure in Iraq's political history, Saddam was a founding member of the Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party, which advocated for a fusion of Arab nationalism and socialism, known as Ba'athism. The party's rise to power in Iraq was marked by the 1968 coup, often referred to as the 17 July Revolution, which saw the Ba'ath Party assume control. Saddam, a key figure in the party, was instrumental in establishing its dominance in Iraq. 
  Saddam's path to the presidency was shaped by his political astuteness and ruthless consolidation of power. He became vice president under General Ahmed Hassan al-Bakr, who was severely weakened by ill health. At a time when numerous factions within the country threatened to destabilize the government, Saddam focused on building and strengthening the security forces that would enable him to suppress dissent. He carefully navigated the complexities of power struggles between the administration and the military, ensuring his influence over both the party and the state apparatus. His careful maneuvering eventually led to his formal assumption of power in 1979, though he had already been Iraq's de facto leader for several years. 
  In the early 1970s, Saddam took aggressive steps to nationalize Iraq's most important industries, including the Iraq Petroleum Company and various independent banks. This move, though initially successful in securing Iraq's economic independence, led to long-term financial instability. The nationalization policies, combined with inflation and a series of bad loans, contributed to the eventual collapse of Iraq's financial sector. Nevertheless, Saddam's regime was buoyed by the economic boom fueled by Iraq's oil exports, which provided the government with significant wealth and the ability to fund state projects.

  Vexillology - Flags of the...

  The history of flags is as old as civilization itself, beginning with the use of symbols to identify and distinguish groups, tribes, and nations. These symbols, initially simple and functional, later evolved into the complex designs we recognize today as flags. In their early forms, flags were not necessarily the fabric banners we use now but were often symbols or standards that represented a group or entity. These early markers were used to communicate identity, power, and territorial boundaries. 
  The earliest known use of flags dates back to ancient civilizations such as the Egyptians, Greeks, and Chinese. For example, the ancient Egyptians used flags made of fabric or leather as symbols of authority, carried into battle or displayed in royal courts. These early flags often consisted of simple shapes and symbols, such as the Egyptian ankh or the scarab, representing the gods and the ruling elite. 
  Similarly, ancient Greek and Roman civilizations used banners in both military and civic contexts. In Roman times, military standards called "signa" were carried by soldiers during battles. These standards were often adorned with the images of gods, and the legions were known for their proud display of these banners, which were considered sacred. These military standards were instrumental in maintaining order and morale within the ranks and also served as a form of propaganda, displaying the power and might of the Roman Empire.
