Excerpts
A Manifold Path
Odin’s second son is Baldr who is so loved and so good in all things that he shines with a light of his own.
After Baldr died by Surtr's hand, many thought the High One’s will was broken.
But this was not the beginning of his end, foretold by the dead witch. The Shaper of Worlds had simply set his sight on yet another impossible tasks.
Descent into Kaldstad
Doomed to Niflheim by Loki’s treachery, Baldr was hidden away in Hel’s Castle, where only Odin would dare a rescue.
Crossing Døkkerland
Odin’s anger carried him to unforgiving Døkkerland, where the stron build new lives on the backs of the weak.
In this burning land of smoke and shadow, Loki’s daughter would test his resolve to free his Hel-bound son.
Hatred and vengeance burn bright in the dark realm, pushing some to greater heights, as the High One was destined to discover…
In the Bowels of Nidheim
After many Helish trials, Odin entered foul Nidheim, home to the most loathsome of dragons.
Though older than the All-Father himself and formidable for his age, Nidhogg was not immune to his own corruption.
And even without his urgent quest, the High One’s horror and disgust would have driven him to strike at Nidhogg’s heart…
