“Everyone has a destiny. You. Me. The world is already written out, and all that is left for us is to play our parts.” The way that he spoke made Hel think that he took comfort in this idea, that he liked inhabiting his role, but on Hel his words had the opposite effect. Hel’s mood darkened as she thought about her own role. Did this mean she was the villain of the story?
Hel wants more from life than just survival; she wants to live free and without fear, but growing up in the freezing world of Jotunheim, security has never been an option. When your whole life is defined by death, destiny has a way of making harsh people even harsher. But everything changes when the gods of Asgard begin their hunt for Loki's monstrous children, and as her mother's secrets begin to unravel, Hel must choose between running from her fate or seizing it with her own bloody hand.
The wheels of time have been set in motion, and the twilight of the gods looms ever closer with each passing day.
