March 6th/7th – Observance Hall, Utgarde Pinnacle
The Observance Hall in Utgarde Pinnacle is the home of Svala Sorrowgrave. Svala was once a vrykul (whose culture and shape I discussed in February when I wrote about Skorn.
She is however, when you enter the room, in discussions with the Lich King. We do not know what about, but Svala has completed a great task for the Lich King, which causes him to transform her into a Val’kyr.
Her first mission as a val’kyr is to destroy the group of intruders who have entered Utgarde Pinnacle.
Val’kyr themselves are undead vrykul. They are a relatively recent addition
to the armies of the scourge, and act as the Lich King’s ambassadors in the spirit world. They are described as “fearsome creatures made of pure nightmare”.
Val’kyr are created from female vrykul who accept the lich king’s “gift”. Valkyrion Aspirants can be found at Valkyrion, as can Nascent Valkyrion.
Val’kyr also appear to judge fights and battles, deciding if one can become a vargul or ymirjar, and they also ‘judge’ fallen vrykul.
