Author: @underragingwaves | Artist: @vikingstrash, @vikingcest Title: The Juniper Tree | Category: M/M | Rating: Mature | Word count: 35k Warnings: implied/referenced Drug Use, Brother/Brother incest Summary: Ubbe Ragnarsson has gone to the temple of Uppsala to learn the will of the gods. Left adrift upon his return from England and bereft of purpose now that Björn seats Kattegat's throne, he is determined to regain control over his own life. Ubbe is granted a seiðkona’s guidance on his journey and accesses his mother's gift of foresight and vision for the first time.
As he spends more time alone in the woods around Uppsala, he slowly learns to make his peace and find his own strengths again. Then, in the depth of winter, the seiðkona comes to ask for Ubbe's aid with a visitor... but what sort of grace can Uppsala possibly grant his most beloved brother Hvitserk, who's still haunted by ghosts of their past?
