Valhalla tells the story of the Norse Valkyries, female helping spirits of the god Odin whose name means “chooser of the fallen.” The Valkyries would select their favorite Norse warriors to be slain and use their magic to influence human battles in order to ensure their favorite warriors’ glorious death. Only after the warrior’s death could the Valkyries then escort the warrior through the gates of Valhalla to fight with eternal glory alongside Odin himself.
