In Norse mythology, is the legendary "Hall of the Slain" in Asgard, where Odin presides over warriors who have died a courageous death in battle. As Bjorn’s vision blurred, he saw her—a Valkyrie descending on a winged steed to carry him to his final destination.
The snow fell thick over the fjords, but for Bjorn Ironside, the chill was a distant thing. He stood amidst the carnage of the shield wall, his breath coming in ragged, frozen puffs. He had lived for the thrill of the hunt and the weight of the axe, and now, as the life ebbed from a deep wound in his side, he felt the familiar pull of the Valkyries.
: Each night, the warriors gathered to feast on the boar Sæhrímnir and drink mead provided by the goat Heiðrún, who produced an unending flow of the divine brew from her udders.
: Bjorn was whisked away to a majestic hall roofed with golden shields and raftered with spears.
: He joined the masses of the fallen, known as the einherjar , who spent their days in endless battle to hone their skills, only to have their wounds miraculously heal by sunset.
