In Norse legend, the valkyries served both as the agentsof Odin and also as a manifestations of the Norns. In their latter capacity, the valkyries flew above great battles astride enormous wolves, deciding which of the combatants would live and which would die. Although they were guided by Fate in making their choices, the valkyries also provided aid to the All-Father, ensuring that the greatest warriors would find their way to Valhalla to join the einherjar (see Scion: Hero, p. 286).

In the modern era, valkyries still haunt the great battlefi tlefi elds eld ds of the t he World—the Wor o ld l —t the Somme, S So o mme m mee, Iwo Iw wo Jima, Jim Ji ma th ma, ma the Mek Mekong Delta, Basra—although as modern warfare has become more mor orr e “effi “e ffi cient,” c ie i nt n t ,” ” it nt,” i t has h s been ha be en harder h ar arde der r and de an d harder ha a rd rder er r to t o fi nd soldiers who exemplify the Viking concept of heroism.
