Running Ember: Wolf Shifters of Norse Lore

They'd expected the run of the North to be just that—a run to pull the biggest bond of Alphas in thousands of years. What none of them had expected was to find secrets of the past buried in the old and scarcely touched nature of Scandinavia.

In one instance after another, the past tosses its puzzle pieces at them for the Völve to work with, and as they gather the clues, synchronicity aids by lining up strange occurrences.

The ones that are hit the hardest are Pack Alpha Steffen and Nol-Elakdon. With help from the bond, they both have to deal with the necessities of going against their ways to figure out what's going on. Digging for answers unearths a corner piece, and they finally have an idea of what they're up against.

Something forgotten. Something they don't know. Something that simply can't be true.

And the wind brings news for the Völve to hear:

"Rigr, Rigr, it's time to rise, for swans to land, and for eagles to fly. Valkyrie, Valkyrie, pick your warrior. It's time for them to burn!"
