Vala Boddason was an awkwardly average seventeen-year-old girl from a small town in Oregon. She spent nights escaping her loathsome foster home with her equally ordinary-albeit stunning-best friend, Helene.
On one of their nightly excursions, the girls gazed into the night sky while laughing about boys and high school drama. Vala fell into a deep, hazy sleep, dreaming of darkness and destiny.
Upon waking, her entire life changed.
Vala was thrust into a world she thought only existed in her departed father's Norse mythology textbooks. Little did she know, she was born into a long line of Norse seeresses and skalds, chosen by the gods due to her parent's combined lineage.
With the help of Heimdall, her sworn protector and watchman of the Bifröst, Vala set off for the Yggdrasil to traverse the nine realms to find her place and purpose among the gods and monsters.
Could she master the art of her Skaldic and Seiðr magic to rewrite the prophecies and save the realms from Ragnarök? Or would the conniving Loki, god of trickery, stand in the way of her destiny, leading to the doomed end of life as they knew it?
