A story of War.
Freya Thoralddóttir lived in Norway during the Age of Silence. A war had been going on between the deities, the Æsir–Vanir War, but it had ended before she was born. Nobody knew why, but everyone was grateful for it.
The day Freya turned six, she noticed something in the corner of her eye: a mirror hanging on the stone wall that stood in the corner of the garden of the house she lived in with her parents.
She could see things in that mirror that no one else could see, not reflections, but an entire new world. Images of things that were long forgotten and images of things to come.
When she was fifteen and became a woman, men turned up at her house to take her away from her parents. They told her she was not Thorald's daughter, but actually Freyja, the lost goddess of love, beauty, fertility, war and death, who was part of the Vanir; those who can see the future.
War erupted again, for Freyja had been the cause of it all. Can Freya stop the Æsir and the Vanir from destroying everything, including Miðgarðr, the world of the humans, where her parents lived in?

And this I believe: that the free, exploring mind of the individual human is the most valuable thing in the world.
