• The Story of the God Ullr Aug 3, 2025

  

  In the frost-covered peaks of the highest mountains, where the wind howls with voices older than memory and the snow never melts even in the height of summer, dwelt one of the most skilled yet least celebrated of all the gods. This was Ullr, whose name meant “Glory” or “Magnificence,” though he was a deity who preferred the solitude of winter wilderness to the golden halls and grand gatherings of Asgard.

• The Marriage of Njörd and Skadi Jul 30, 2025

  

  High in the frozen peaks of Jotunheim lived Skadi, daughter of the giant Thjazi, in a realm of eternal winter where ice never melted and the wind sang songs of solitude among the crags. She was a huntress without equal, swift on her skis and deadly with her bow, her heart as fierce and wild as the mountain storms.

  Skadi’s world changed forever when her father was killed during his attempt to steal Idunn’s apples from the gods. When news of Thjazi’s death reached her mountain halls, her grief transformed into a blazing desire for vengeance.
