Sword of the Valkyr

And suddenly I understand why mothers don’t want their daughters to date writers.

You get halfway through putting your armor on, and then there you are scratching your head trying to remember where you left your sword.

No, this is what the writers put on their covers because mothers tell their daughters not to date writers.

[sarcasm]Only the shoulders, arms and breasts need armor because, in fantasyland, sword thrusts never target a Valkyr’s lower body.[/sarcasm]

Come on, I’ve never seen an outfit like this at the local SCA in a combat tournament.

Maybe in the 1970s at the local M.C. rally on the poolroom wall in a poster from Easyriders.

Armor, bondage gear, same difference, right?

I find it odd that a Valkyr, or any other superhuman warrior goddess types, would actually dress in the submissive’s gear. Seems quite common in, ahem, certain type of art.

According to the description, she’s a captured warrior so maybe it’s justified?

Could be – but they let her have her knuckledusters and she is not tied down, so it looks like she might be cooperative. Then again, maybe they hit her on the head so hard she had amnesia? Would explain the pose and the vacant look. “I seem to have lost something… sort of long and pointy…no, that’s not it.”

I bet she packs a mean punch with those spike knuckles!

Heh, heh, heh… Bondage, indeed!
