All the Vikings still loyal to Odinvaldr across Valhalla were drowning in horror and despair.
Seeing their people reduced to those abominations tore something fundamental from their souls. The despair did not come only from revulsion, but from understanding. They could feel it—the immense power radiating from the creatures born of corruption. That power mocked everything Odinvaldr had taught them.
The Primordial God's laws were clear. Strength was to be earned through struggle, honor, and battle beneath the gaze of the gods. What stood before them now defied those laws entirely. These hybrids gained strength not through valor, but through degradation and violation of nature itself.
Worse still, the abominations were truly powerful.
