• The Story of the God Bragi Aug 4, 2025

  

  In the golden halls of Asgard, where the voices of gods ring out like music and every word spoken carries the weight of divine authority, there dwelt one whose gift for language surpassed even the silver-tongued Loki in eloquence.

• Odin's Quest for Wisdom Aug 3, 2025

He had two ravens, Huginn and Muninn—Thought and Memory—who flew across the worlds each day to bring him news, yet still he felt there were secrets beyond his reach.
