In 1025, as Christianity sweeps across Iceland and the ancient pantheon fades to legend, Vetrulfr—a hardened Varangian captain exiled from the East—returns with mysterious wealth, lost martial knowledge, and an insatiable purpose. He descends upon the remote Westfjords to resurrect Ullrsfjörðr from desolation, fortifying its walls with runes and leading a crusade for a dying faith. Whispers of his emergence ripple from Reykjavík to Aachen: some name him Ullr's heir, others a demon crowned in wolf-hide, but none can ignore his rising power. The old gods, it seems, have not perished—merely waited. And when the Valkyries call, he will rise to answer.
