Interlude 3 – Ophelia – Oath of a Valkyrie

Ophelia spent some time getting her thoughts in order before she took her Valkyrie’s Oath. It was hard for Ophelia to imagine that it had only been a few weeks since she arrived at Jake’s refuge. The turbulent emotions that happened that day are not something she would ever forget.

Just why didn’t her father pay to have her resurrected? She knew that he was overcome with grief from the loss of her mother, but she was not yet lost, even though her body remained in that cave.

Her first thought was that it was simply too soon for him to have saved up enough credits. But she checked her menu that first evening and found that over one hundred years had passed since her spirit entered the void that was the Framework. Just what had happened? Ophelia was afraid to learn the answer, the truth. Either her failure had driven him to death from grief, or something bad had happened to the town he lived in before he could save up enough funds to resurrect her.

Either way, she was not there when her father needed her. She was pursuing her dream of becoming a respected warrior like her mother, and she had failed just like her, only worse: in a cave due to some foolishness of chasing down her tormentors, instead of on the fields of battle, protecting everyone.

She moved her thoughts to Jake himself. He sent reassurance to her over their bond, along with patience. She had just been broadcasting her feelings of regret when this should be a happy moment. Jake was humble, supportive, hard-working, handsome, and even strong; for a human, anyway. In many ways, he was not very different from her own father.

Her father supported her mother in all that she did, producing weapons and armor for her and her squad mates, taking care of young Ophelia when she was out, and even preparing meals the majority of the time. When her mother died, it was like there was nothing left; he had given her everything, and her death took it all away. Of course, that was not true as her daughter was still there, but he was never able to rise above his grief to see it.

Still, she knew that Jake would help her achieve her dream of being a respected warrior like her mother. In many ways, he already has. It won’t be very long until she surpasses her mother’s strength, both from the help of the Framework and from Jake, and presumably the goddess she was about to take an oath to. On top of that, she had found her Chosen, the silly fool, having no idea why she felt the way that she did.

Jake probably thought she was in awe of his martial prowess, which for the amount of time he’d been training and fighting, she was, but the truth was that she was in awe of his fear. She saw the looks in his eyes as he charged into melee to face enemies that flank her.
