Valkyries (戦乙女, Warukyūre) are a group of Norse demigods that are charged with guiding Human souls to Valhalla.
Overview[]
The Valkyries are a group of thirteen demigoddesses that are charged with choosing the most worthy Human warriors and guiding their souls to Valhalla after their death. These warriors were to be used as an army for the Gods. However, a rumor has floated around since ancient times that the Valkyries' goal was never to create an army for Heaven. Instead, the Valkyries would bond with their chosen warriors and transform into weapons befitting of the wielder in a pact that would be known as Völundr. The souls gathered by the Valkyries were the force they prepared to fight against the Gods, should Ragnarok begin. If a Human warrior dies, then a Valkyrie suffers the same fate as the Human representative and both of them are sent to Niflhel.
This group of thirteen individuals chosen by the Valkyries are known as the Einherjar.
