Summary
"Steve, if there's a time when you don't have to worry about anything, it's now. I’m a Herald-Trainee, Winter's a Companion. You're exhausted. Just…trust us. We'll get you home safely."
For a long moment, a moment in which Bucky felt gifted with sudden insight into who Steve was, he thought it could go either way. Then Steve smiled, this one warm and bright and just for Bucky, and it raced through him, lodging inside him like a miniature sun. "Guess I'd be a bit ungrateful to say no."
Some Heralds change the world. Some Heralds save it. Some Herald's names are woven through the very fabric of Valdemar. But most don't, and most aren't. Most Heralds simply do their duty, their Companions by their sides, their stories recorded in dusty Crown records not Bardic ballads.
Steve and Bucky figured they were most Heralds—no ballads required, thanks—and they were mostly right. What they didn't account for was that no Herald was ordinary—and with the two of them bound so tightly together, extraordinary was sure to follow.
[Absolutely no knowledge of the Valdemar series required for this fic]

A voice speaks out, causing Matoro a moment of hesitation... And that moment will result in events he could have never imagined. Perhaps Teridax and the other Makuta were not the forces of evil that someone had made him believe.

Summary
Herald John shena Tale'sedrin is the King's Own, the highest Herald in Valdemar, but it all means nothing when his King is killed in a senseless accident. John sets out on a journey of self-discovery very damn reluctantly, leaving Rolan behind. He is more running away than running to, and it's his good fortune that he meets one Harold Finch. Harold is one of the famous horse-loving Ashkevrons. Unfortunately, he dislikes horses, and he's been on a self-imposed guilt trip for years. When he spots John on the road, he can't find it in himself to leave him behind, and John goes with him, but only until he can disappear into the mountains. That's his plan, but John has a few surprises in store. This is Valdemar, and that means chance and fate are all part of John's destiny.
