• The Story of Brynhild and Sigurd Aug 3, 2025

  

  High on a mountain peak, surrounded by a wall of magical fire that burned without fuel and gave no heat to the pure of heart, lay a castle that few mortals had ever seen. Within its halls slept Brynhild, once the greatest of Odin’s Valkyries, now bound by an enchanted sleep as punishment for defying the All-Father’s will.

  Brynhild had been beautiful beyond compare, with hair like spun gold and eyes that blazed with the courage of a thousand warriors. She rode across battlefields on her winged horse, choosing which heroes would die gloriously and join Odin’s einherjar in Valhalla. But her downfall came when she allowed her heart to rule her duty.
