Lore

Valkyries are divine warrior maidens in Norse mythology, serving Odin by choosing the slain on battlefields for Valhalla. Riding winged horses, they decide who lives or dies in combat and escort the worthy to the hall, where they serve mead to the einherjar. In some tales, they wear swan cloaks to fly and can marry mortals. Valkyries embody fate, honor, and the glory of heroic death, balancing war's brutality with the promise of eternal feasting. They symbolize the sacred role of women in determining destiny and the Norse ideal of valor in battle.
