The winds of fate sweep through the realm of Midgard. Ragnarok, the prophesied fall of the gods, is imminent, and the age of Man is poised to begin. Yet the ancient gods refuse to yield to destiny. They have dispatched their elite warriors, the Valkyries, to scour the land for those destined to trigger Ragnarok. If the event can be averted, the gods' reign will endure for another 1000 years. Fenris Fenrir knows Ragnarok must occur. She is on a desperate hunt for the reincarnation of Balder, the fallen god, whose help she needs to change the world. But if the Valkyries find him first, Fenris's quest may end before it even begins.
