Norse Angels: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 08:31, 19 October 2024

Loki is free, Ragnarok is coming and not even the gods can stop it.

Loki has got the drop on the other gods, and Ragnarok is coming much sooner than they expected. The gods will soon be forced to sleep for Fimbulwinter, so in desperation they've invested some of their power to godlings, like you, and tasked you with navigating the tumultuous time of Ragnarok and making sure there'll be a world left on the other side. But rumour has it Loki has concealed some of his own followers in with the godlings to lead them astray.
