SweFic: -Swedish Fanfic-

CAROLA ERIKSSON

Little Echoes | Små ekon
A short and sweet little story with season two's Xena and Gabrielle. Xena's in deep thought and Gabrielle senses that something's bothering the warrior. Little does she now that she's been on the warrior's mind all day...

Gladiator
This is the story of an empress, a gladiator, a passionate encounter and destiny. If you loved WFC, you'll also love this fic. It's dark, but with a light at the end of the tunnel. More won't be revealed. Read it, and be seduced by the writings of a master.

Conquering Liaisons
Xena, conqueror of the known world, gets a girl brought to her at a brothel. The girl's a purehearted young woman with strawberry blonde hair and soulful green eyes. The moment she walks into the room something happens that elusively changes them both. In a world of court people, assassins, plotting and intrigues, feelings are stirred...

Love In A Strange World
An alternative storyline to the HTLJ episode Stranger In A Strange World. The story is twisted to some degree and the episode is suddenly much more interesting...

Shopping with the Conqueror
Xena the Conqueror is a mean, evil...well! -We get the idea. What does the Conqueror do when she needs a scribe? Well, she goes to the local slave market, of course! And meets a small, irritating blonde with nothing but lust on her mind. This is a conqueror parody that will make you laugh 'til your sides hurt!

The Last Letter
A letter is written to an heir by a king, telling her story. It's the tale of what a piece of writing can tell about a person's most inner feelings, of love, misunderstandings and lingering sadness. A thouroughly well written fic with a warm heart.

The Island of Beasts
Mike is brought ashore the island from hell. Her life is a spoiled mess and her alcoholism has escalated out of proportion. She's eager to accept an employment lasting six months, as long as she's got a roof over her head, food on the table and liquor au the extreme. But something happens that will come to change her life. Nothing is really what it looks like, but some things might just have to be accepted with no further thought...

Fragments: The Gift | Fragments 1 (text) + part 2: Offering
Gabrielle, ruler of provinces and farstretching realms, receives a gift from Lao Ma, the ruler of Chin. There's a haunted depth in the slave's eyes and she holds something even deeper that moves Gabrielle. Soon, the slave is telling her story... and Gabrielle is listening.

Mark of the Mermaid
A dark and gory tale about the curse of the mermaid's flesh and the poor unfortunate souls that fall under it. The lure of eternal life comes with a heavy price, and even for those that attain it, an eternal life in solitude is no gift to cherish. So all that remains is to wander through life in search of the one, that one person that can share that unending life - the one allotted to you.

Shinobi
A Ninja is sitting in the early morning darkness, watching the sky, awaiting her last dawn. A silent, still and in every inch self-assured reflection of a life echoes through her thoughts one last time. A life permeated by blood, sadness and love, all emotions entwined into a fixed finality. This is an example of yet another fic where Carola benefits from her gift of writing characters with souls holding an almost poetic rhythm.

In the Ruins of the World
After the destruction the remnants of a lost world rise like a silhouette against the clouded sun, while the devastation shapes a new reality with new living conditions. But what happens to the few people who survived? How will she re-build what was lost forever?

Pain's Fairytale
A wanderer of the dark, caves and forests, born in darkness and raised in shadows, holds a devout urge for her princess's companionship and the mirage of light which is but a dream. Always watching from afar, but never gone.

Almost a Story... no, really!
Carola makes a parody of her own writings! Yup, it's definitely possible! Read and laugh 'til your sides hurt. Never underestimate the power of the Yellow Rubber Bath Ducky. Amen.

A Tale of Woe
A chilling thriller about humans best friend and her beloved's worst nightmare... Woe to all; -beware the jealousy and wrath of the laptop scorned! Watch your back and make sure that there's nothing under your bed tonight...

Faerie Folk
At night the faeries sing the song of life, breathing magic into the forest and love into the heart of one young Brownie.

A Ladyhawkeüber
How do you write a Ladyhakeüber? Well, this is certainly an option! A hilarious parody is the result of what began as a vague question discussed between friends.

The Other Breed
Humanity thought it was the pinnacle of creation. That mankind was the rulers of the Earth simply because they stood highest on the evolutionary ladder. They did not know that mankind was just... the second breed.

Chocolate
Sarah hopes she'll be able to close early before the Christmas holidays, but destiny in the form of a desperate customer wants otherwise.
