A World Where Gods Left Only Shadows
In Vigrid, mountains aren't formed by tectonic shifts-they're the corpses of fallen deities. The northern archipelago? A dead god's ribcage jutting from frigid waters. Three hundred years after the gods destroyed each other in cataclysmic battle, their remains dominate the landscape and their divine blood flows through certain humans-the Tainted-who inherit fragments of godly power alongside crushing persecution. This is no gentle fantasy realm but a harsh Norse-inspired world where strength determines survival and battle-fame brings meaning to life. Three powers maintain an uneasy balance: Queen Helka rules western territories from her fortress built in a god's skull, Jarl Storr commands northern ports with dragon-prowed ships, and southern jarls form shifting alliances in endless power struggles. Meanwhile, mercenary crews like the Bloodsworn and Battle-Grim hunt monsters born from divine corruption, seeking valuable god-relics that hum with residual energy. What happens when divine blood becomes both blessing and curse? When mountains are dead gods watching over a world still healing from their war? This is the question at the heart of this brutal, beautiful world.
