Helgi Hundingsbane: The Wolf-Born King Who Walked With Destiny

Before Helgi Hundingsbane ever raised a sword or won a crown, the North had already whispered his name. Born beneath a wolf-shaped star and greeted by omens that trembled through burial mounds and stormlit skies, he entered the world not as a blank soul - but as one returning. His story is carved into the bones of Norse legend: a king shaped by destiny, guarded by wolves, loved by a valkyrie, and followed by shadows older than memory. To walk Helgi’s path is to witness fate unfolding with quiet inevitability, one heartbeat at a time.

Hjalti the Twice-Hanged: The Man Who Would Not Die

They tried to kill him twice.

The rope bit, the gallows creaked, and still Hjalti walked away.

Hjalti the Twice-Hanged is not a figure from the surviving sagas, but he feels like one that should have been. Born from the edge where history, wyrd, and imagination meet, his story follows a warrior who survives two hangings and steps into the haunted space between life and death. Is he blessed by Odin, cursed by fate, or simply too stubborn to break?

This mythopoetic retelling explores Hjalti as a modern Norse legend: a man who refuses to bow to the noose, who walks with ravens and gallows-shadows, and who asks us a dangerous question - if you crossed death’s threshold and returned… what would you do with the life that followed?
