As part of the A to Z Challenge for the month of April. I’m posting about my Valkyrie world. I will try to present elements of the world without being too spoilerific ;)
So today is the letter H which stands for Huldra.
Within the world of the Valkyrie series I’ve used a number of different creatures. Bear in mind that I have taken a tiny bit of artistic licence in using the Norse mythological creatures in Bryn’s world.
Huldra
A Huldra is a seductive forest sprite who entrance those they encounter. They are said to have cow or fox tails, and a back that is made up of the bark of a tree.
This image from deviant.art makes me think of the Huldras in my Valkyrie series:
Turi – *Spoiler*
Bryn’s personal servant is the Huldra Turi. She is always cheerful and smiling, and happy to do whatever Bryn requires. Bryn finds it hard to treat Turi like a servant so instead she accepts her as a friend and companion.
So come back tomorrow for I is for Impossible
For the rest of the alphabet see below:
A is for Armor | B is for Blood | C is for Creatures | D is for Dwarfs | E is for Einherjar | F is for Fenrir |
G is for Gungnir
