Three souls fly to the hall
Their rest, now a contest
To fight, to sleep, again
To flee, to feast, again
Two long for justice twice
Though one lusts for unjust
One, old life obsession
One, a clean break to make
One is pursued, one day
One night, for sins in light
Offers extend, often
Offers refused, save one
Challenges from a choice
Chills deep bonds over kills
Voices from Valhalla
Vent, wolves or to cold sent

Where life ends, Chimwala's and Desmond's life in Valhalla begins. Thrust into the Viking afterlife, the two soldiers must find their way amongst the honored dead of all Earth's fallen warriors. Far from the romantic skaldic tales of old, there is more to do here than simply fight and feast: a war rages in heaven, and the flames of that conflict threatens to consume all. From one forever war to an eternal war, Desmond and Chimwala are forced to pick a side. They must learn as much as they can about Valhalla while confronting their killer, grappling with their own sordid pasts, and learning to cope, somehow, with the lives they left behind.
