For the A to
Z Challenge, I'm featuring twenty-six flash fiction pieces from my Foxwick Kingdom
and its surrounding neighbors. A to Z Flashes of Foxwick is now available from Smashwords and Amazon and includes the bonus short story "Lady Death." You can add this to your Goodreads list here.
V
Valiant Valdale
The lands near
Valdale claimed they had the best healers, but the people of Valdale knew they
did. Their king was a philosopher, and he designed fairness throughout the
kingdom with his laws and rites.
Temples
scattered in the towns and were more plentiful than taverns, although the
locals knew the temple brothers had the best mead. The people were happy and
lived ordinary lives, although their kingdom was small.
Valdale made up
for its size when their neighbors called.
For Foxwick
needed assistance when Wintermill’s frigidness drifted northward, and Valdale
sent an army. They were always willing to shoulder the burdens of war to keep
their own lands safe from harm.
No others were
more valiant than those from Valdale.
Now if you want to learn more about
authors, I’m featuring up to three per day on my blog Surrounded by Books Reviews.

Now I want to go live in Valdale! Or at least have them as my neighbors.
They do sound very valiant, indeed. :D
I wish I lived in such a town!
Any chance those healers of Valdale can make a house call? What if I say please?
Hello, Cherie! Valdale sounds like a great place to live!!

I am in awe of your ability to name fantasy places, creatures, whatnot. I really struggle with choosing names.

Three cheers for Valdale!
Hoorah! Another fun piece.
Peace coexistence if all neighbours were like them. but I would still miss the hustle bustle of a big city.
Soft, dreamy description.
Sounds like Valdale's a good place to live!
