-------------
HFY is a story/series that takes a “human element” in either humanity or an “other” (race/species or object) that exists in a “setting” (future or other world/universe) with varying levels of culture, technology, society and history that help show in some shape or form the potential good or bad for humanity’s race/culture.

Taken from the FAQ of the r/HFY subreddit.
This is also a Science Fiction story ,What is Science Fiction?
-------------
Science fiction (sometimes shortened o sci-fi or SF) is a genre of speculative fiction that typically deals with imaginative and futuristic concepts such as advanced science and technology, space exploration, time travel, parallel universes, and extraterrestrial life. It has been called the "literature of ideas", and often explores the potential consequences of scientific, social, and technological innovations.
Science fiction, whose roots go back to ancient times, is related to fantasy, horror, and superhero fiction, and contains many subgenres. However its exact definition has long been disputed among authors, critics, and scholars.

[@mrmastaofdesasta6994]

My headcanon for this story is that the entire human army is made up of divisions corresponding to different mythologies, and all of the soldiers and generals are just really dedicated Live Action Roleplayers.

[@zyanidwarfare5634]

Imagine what would happen if the pagan fleet, or the Greek or Roman fleets Or even the Vatican fleet

[@kylemackinnon6230]

That was the impression i got from the last lines that since each fleet would have its own response to annihilation. So many good mythos to pull from

[@BrunoMaricFromZagreb]

The "Sol War" series is pretty interesting. It just started out as a historical lecture in an alien school,but branched out a lot.

[@ckl9390]

The Hindu inspired fleets would also be terrifying.

[@galahad626]

The Buddhist fleet is just diplomats

[@Tyrinath]

There isn't a harder mic drop than. "The system no longer has a sun."

[@ICountFrom0]

The system, that they were asked to SAVE, had the sun destroyed by them, because they failed.

[@Amoth_oth_ras_shash]

considering it apparently still exists though..being renamed etc.... what ever process the god slayer set in motion must have turned at least some part of the sun into something else to remain as gravitational anchor i wonder at what ratio...and what it was

[@BrunoMaricFromZagreb]

I'm reminded of the leviathan ships from Endless Space 2.

[@CHRF-55457]

But kinda stupid through. Aren't they fighting to push out the invaders from the system? Rather than destroying it?

[@Tyrinath]

@@CHRF-55457 Bruh I commented this two years ago, I don't remember the details. But yes destroying a sun is the cosmic equivalent of nuking perfectly usable land, ruining a perfectly usable solar system. Generally a bad move unless you absolutely don't give a fuck about turning it into a parking lot.

[@Nyghtking]

I imagine they could have added Hel, a ship housing downloaded human minds inside mechanical bodies to be deployed in way, and Jormungandr, a ship designed specifically to kill planets

[@shadowstalker130666]

This stirred my heathen heart.

[@jerrybaker8597]

Its against the hedonist pantheon to care for the weak

[@lancekidd8794]

All hail the Asúm! Good to see something about Heathenry love the story to all my fellow Heathens Skål and may the Gods smile upon you

I honestly listen to your video stories every day, and I’m not stranger to being moved and inspired by them.

[@Azurath100]

@@jerrybaker8597 where did you get that information?

[@123domo8]

Humans tend to innovate alot faster during war, so how many wars did we need to make a star eater?

[@arakheno4051]

A magnetic bussard collector with enough power to draw the normal ejecta from a star and concentrated to project it out the front. A star lance with an entire star's power as ammo, Fenrir indeed.

[@janthion3590]

Enough

[@stoirmslw7195]

Going off how quickly we advanced in the world wars I’d say less then 10 the real question is how long did it take to build the infrastructure required for this

[@carlfromtheoc1788]

Somebody watched an ancient Star Trek episode and thought< "A planet or sun killing space weapon.........yeah, we can build one."

[@barakreeves9360]

Typically 1

[@benjaminleewilliams42782]

And that was just the Vicking division, wait until you meet the Spartan, Zulu, Apache, or Māori

[@truekurayami]

The truly terrifying sight would be to see them all marching to war against a single foe. May the heavens have mercy on those fools for Humanity will give none.

Warning! Waring! Winged Hussars deploying.

[@jofknoll]

[@arobidy]

They are still stuck in the Warp, bringing the cleansing flame of the Emperor with them.

[@____________838]

I’m sure there’s a reason for that.

[@ivanrubiomorales2759]

Was I the only waiting for Jörmungandr?

[@____________838]

That’s the End Weapon of Fleet Vanir

[@bandiras2]

When the enemy is losing the battle, and this is still a positive outcome for them in the light of the possible consequences of them winning the battle...

[@eliandervalderen5849]

If they think Ragnarok was bad I shudder to to consider how they would feel about Götterdämmerung

[@possemis]

Götterdämmerung is an opera from Wagner. Götterdämmerung is an german translation of the old-Norse word Ragnarok.

[@eliandervalderen5849]

@@possemis my first encounter with it was near the end of one of the Orion books. I think you may have been Orion Among the Stars. I honestly never heard the Opera do now that I know they exist it might be worth looking up

[@kurtismiller9544]

THAT was a DAYUM GOOD story! Skald you did that one proud! LOVED it. The Author wrote an Awesome story and your reading of it got my Viking Blood pumping! Well done Agro 👍🤘⚒️⚔️

[@truekurayami]

When the Sons of Odin and the Daughters of Freya march to war you shall see Ragnarok. When the Sons of Odin and Daughters of Frey march to peace you shall see Vallhalla.

[@WardNightstone]

Lo, There do I see my Father Lo, There do I see my Mother and My Brothers and my Sisters Lo, There do I see the line of my people back to the begining Lo, They do call to me They bid me take my place among them in the halls of Valhalla Where thine enemies have been vanquished Where the brave shall live Forever Nor shall we mourn but rejoice for those that have died the glorious death.

[@amberpelton5679]

Awesome

Leave it to Humans to bring the Old Tales to life.

[@cosmiccake791]

Right...

[@Zakvadr1995]

We may be few, and our enemies many. Yet so long as there remains one of us still fighting, one who still rages in the name of justice and truth, then by the Allfather, the galaxy shall yet know hope.

[@Hildagaard_in_the_woods]

We love the Brothers of Metal reference! "We are the Sons of Odin. Fire, Blood and Steel." is a line from their song "Fire, Blood , and Steel."

[@birubu]

And they didn’t even bring out the Jormungandr, think about it.

[@discusmaximus]

For the Algorithm, For the Author(s), For the Narrator, Agro Squirrel !

[@Odins_Spear]

I appreciate the brothers of metal reference

[@trollunderbridge2292]

The author is clearly a fan of Brothers of Metal! Love it!

[@HimitsuYami]

Wonderful story and good narration! My only complaint is in the pronunciation of the Norse words. For example, those words ending in ir you pronounced liked er should have been pronounced closer I believe to ear. But that's only a minor issue. I still very much enjoyed the story and narration, thank you very much for reading it!

[@amberpelton5679]

This makes me want to join them! Shieldmaiden of Odin hears his call. ❤

[@d.wayneharbison8691]

Somebody has a much better than average understanding of the Norse Lore. Kudos!

[@TD-ug4mg]

This brings to mind the game too human

[@ChrissieBear]

Ackshually! Einherjar doesn't mean Honoured Dead, it means "One Fighters", referring to their role of fighting in the sole, final battle of Ragnarok.

[@theengagedfew]

Aren't the Einherjar the Honoured Dead, who are training in Valhalla, when they're not feasting?

[@tonyoliver4920]

Music and battle songs to demoralise the enemy.... during The world war 1 many German soldiers would refuse to shoot the pipers, thinking that an unarmed man in a dress playing music, drawing attention to himself must be a poor mental Ill fool. By the end of WWII the Scots were “ladies from hell”’ “devils in skirts” & “death in a dress” Most, would still not fire on an unarmed piper, Chaplin or medic by the end off WWII, but there’s reports of enemy troops surrendering to pipers because death follows the pipes. Scots are 7% of the uk population and 70% of the Special Services in the armed forces.

[@jackreisewitz6632]

AWESOME !!!!!!

[@WallNutBreaker524]

Imagine, as a comment here pointed out, that this was only "the viking division" of humankinds armies 😅 damn son, that would be awesome.

[@juliane.mfarias9285]

I like the implication that Nordic Mithology becomes so popular one day that humanity as a whole takes the role play serius and this is the consequence.

[@williamchandler2937]

The protocol story was awesome.

[@masterrhino144]

This sounds like a chapter from first contact. I know it's not but it fits in with that book

Not that it's likely you'll ever say it again in a vid but Tyr is pronounced tear, like a teardrop.

[@AgroSquerril]

will keep that in mind

Hail Odin! Tonight we dine with you in Valhalla.

[@vulpinstein9133]

Fire blood and steel, well we know the author has heard of the Brothers Of Metal.

[@archivis]

A SUN BEING RENOVED FROM A SYSTMTRULY WOULD EVERYTHING INORBIT TO leave the system chaotically as the system is no longerr boundto iyts gravity. anymore. feel like they sent iin a black hole to eat the star/ mmm wrath.

[@Stookinator]

Do yall think the aliens are mad that we kinda just BM'ed them into the sun by using melee weapons when we could have used hand held nukes?

....this was a pretty terribly written story, it made no sense. Like, why in the hell would they destroy the sun if they were there to save people calling for help? It feels as if the writer got lazy or had writers block halfway through and just wanted to get it over with.
