Flash!Mob DEC25: RIDE OF THE VALKYRIES

The FLASH!MOB prompt for December 2025 is RIDE OF THE VALKYRIES

300 to 1k wobbly words... any genre... any style... go wild with the whatifs!

What if...

• a viking warrior refuses the call to battle because he'd rather be a baker...
• a soldier on the frontline sees a figure in the mist...
• news of a nuclear apocalypse reaches the halls of Valhalla...
• a Valkyrie falls in love with a mortal who refuses to fight...

Any of these or whatever springs to mind... have fun with the Vikings and happy writing.

Deadline: 26th December 2025

A note on wobbly word counts: 300 words is just a rough guide... anything up to 1k words or so is fine xx
