Summary
Herald John shena Tale'sedrin is the King's Own, the highest Herald in Valdemar, but it all means nothing when his King is killed in a senseless accident. John sets out on a journey of self-discovery very damn reluctantly, leaving Rolan behind. He is more running away than running to, and it's his good fortune that he meets one Harold Finch. Harold is one of the famous horse-loving Ashkevrons. Unfortunately, he dislikes horses, and he's been on a self-imposed guilt trip for years. When he spots John on the road, he can't find it in himself to leave him behind, and John goes with him, but only until he can disappear into the mountains. That's his plan, but John has a few surprises in store. This is Valdemar, and that means chance and fate are all part of John's destiny.

Summary
Being glared at by Nick Fury, the Queen’s Own, was not something most Heralds survived, but Phil was sadly used to it. Arching an eyebrow, Phil glared right back. “Nick,” he said flatly. “Don’t pull me off this. I’m doing good work at the Border.”
“I know you are,” Nick agreed. For a second, his expression softened. “I just need you back here. Something’s coming. I can see it on the horizon, and I need someone to help me figure out what it is before it gets here.”
Phil is a Herald of Valdemar. It is his job to keep his home and the people in it safe and protected, and it is a job he does well. When he returns home from his latest mission, however, Phil finds things have changed. There is political intrigue everywhere and trouble with the neighbouring kingdom of Karse, and Nick Fury, the Queen's Own, needs Phil's help in uncovering it all. Add in the new Herald Clint Barton, and things are bound to get complicated. Particularly since Phil is supposed to be mentoring Clint, not slowly falling in love with him...
(You do not need to be familiar with Heralds of Valdemar to read this fic).
