	==Biography==		==Biography==
	Svala ~~was~~ the reincarnation of ~~the Isu~~ Freyja ~~who~~, ~~along~~ with ~~several other~~ members of the [[~~Æsir]] including [[Odin]], [[Thor~~]] and ~~[[Tyr]], used~~ the ~~[[Yggdrasil]]~~, the ~~intended seventh solution to the [[Great Catastrophe]] to reincarnate and escape their fates~~.<ref name="~~Hidden Truth~~">''[[Assassin's Creed: Valhalla]]'' – [[~~Animus Anomalies]]: AA_Complete</ref> By the time she became old, Svala inherited most of the memories of her life as Freyja.<ref name="ACV">''[[Assassin~~'s ~~Creed: Valhalla~~]]''</ref>		===Mortal life===
			{{Quote\|It is foretold. The curtains are raised. Nothing is true until it is severed from the branches of Yggdrasil.\|Svala during the attack on Heillboer, 855.\|Assassin's Creed: Valhalla\|Prologue (Valhalla)}}
			As the reincarnation of Freyja, Svala struggled with visions of her past life's memories, affecting her psyche and causing her to speak in riddles. Nevertheless, her visions caused her to be regarded as a wise woman by most members of the [[Raven Clan]] and she was appointed the clan's official seeress, as it was believed she could speak with the spirits.<ref name="A Seer's Solace">''[[Assassin's Creed: Valhalla]]'' – [[A Seer's Solace]]</ref>

	~~Between 872 and 873~~, Svala~~, knowing~~ her ~~death was fast approaching, made use of Freyja~~'s ~~memories to locate the Yggdrasil~~, ~~wishing to use it to escape death. In time, she managed to locate~~ the ~~chamber in~~ [[~~Hordaland\|Hordafylke~~]] and ~~understood how to successfully utilize~~ the ~~machine.

			In 855, Svala attended a feast organized in her ''[[jarl]]'' [[Styrbjorn Sigvaldisson\|Styrbjorn]]'s honor in [[Heillboer]], which was interrupted by a [[raid]] by the rival [[Wolf Clan]]. Svala and most other Raven Clan members survived the attack, and in the aftermath Strybjorn decided to adopt [[Eivor Varinsdottir]], the orphaned daughter of [[Varin]] and [[Rosta]].<ref name="Prologue">''[[Assassin's Creed: Valhalla]]'' – [[Prologue (Valhalla)\|Prologue]]</ref>

	~~Eventually~~, Sigurd and ~~Eivor entered themselves~~, the ~~two also being Isu~~ reincarnations of [[~~Tyr~~]] and [[~~Odin~~]], respectively, everyone present welcomed them as old friends. Svala tried ~~explaining Valhalla~~ to a confused Eivor, but Eivor and Sigurd eventually ~~left~~ the simulation, ~~with Svala wishing~~ to ~~stay behind~~. ~~Having come to terms with her decision,~~ Eivor ~~wisher her well and accepts~~ Svala's ~~decision~~ to ~~stay inside the Valhalla simulation forever~~.<ref name="Brother's Keeper" />		At some point, Svala had a daughter, [[Valka]], who eventually took over her duties as the Raven Clan's seer and would look after Svala in her old age at [[Valka's Hut\|their home]] near [[Fornburg]]. In 872, when Eivor visited Valka's hut for advice on a vision she had experienced, she briefly encountered Svala, but the old woman was too preoccupied with her own visions to pay her much attention.<ref name="A Seer's Solace"/>

			===Life in Valhalla===
			{{Quote\|I am an old woman with a broken body. What life I had left was brief. So I bid farewell to my dear Valka and came here.\|Svala to Eivor inside the Valhalla simulation, 877.\|Assassin's Creed: Valhalla\|A Brother's Keeper}}
			In 873, knowing her death was fast approaching, Svala made use of Freyja's memories to locate [[Yggdrasil]], wishing to use the machine to escape death. In time, she managed to locate the Yggdrasil Chamber in [[Hordaland\|Hordafylke]] and understood how to successfully utilize the machine. After bidding farewell to Valka, Svala departed and used Yggdrasil to create a simulation of [[Valhalla (afterlife)\|Valhalla]], relishing in the freedom, youth and vigor that the simulation gave her.<ref name="Brother's Keeper">''[[Assassin's Creed: Valhalla]]'' – [[A Brother's Keeper]]</ref>

			[[File:ACV A Brother's Keeper 26.png\|thumb\|250px\|Svala with Eivor and Sigurd in the Valhalla simulation]]
			In 877, Eivor and her adoptive brother [[Sigurd Styrbjornsson\|Sigurd]], who were the reincarnations of [[Odin]] and [[Týr]], respectively, found the Yggdrasil Chamber and entered the Valhalla simulation themselves, where everyone present welcomed them as old friends. Svala tried to explain the simulation's true nature to a confused Eivor, but Eivor and Sigurd eventually chose to leave and return to the real world.<ref name="Brother's Keeper"/>

			When Eivor asked Svala if she would remain inside the simulation, the latter explained that her physical body was close to death, but that inside Valhalla her consciousness was immortal. Eivor understood Svala's choice and wished her well before going to find Sigurd so that they could leave together.<ref name="Brother's Keeper"/>

			According to Valka, Svala's mind was a jumble, as she believed she could speak with the spirits by the time her final winter had come.<ref name="A Seer's Solace"/> It was later revealed that Svala was fearful of getting old and dying and became desperate to find a way to achieve immortality. Using her memories of her past life as Freyja, Svala secretly used Yggdrasil to regain her youth inside the machine's Valhalla simulation.<ref name="Brother's Keeper"/>

			When Eivor entered the simulation herself, Svala tried to convince her to stay, showing her simulated versions of her friends and family. However, Eivor knew that they were not real and decided to leave. Svala respected Eivor's choice but declined to come with her, electing to remain inside the Valhalla simulation for the rest of eternity.<ref name="Brother's Keeper"/>
