== Premise == The premise of the Manhwa borrows from the Norse Mythology somewhat in that it uses the worlds of Midgard, the realm of the humans, and also references Ragnarök, the central part of the Elder (Poetic) Edda, which details the impending doom of the gods, but amends the myth that instead of gods causing a battle which destroys Midgard, the humans in Midgard are set to inherit the earth. <ref name=":0">YiM.-J., Knaak, R.A., Forbes, J. and Na, L. (2002). ''Ragnarök''. Los Angeles, Ca: Tokyopop.</ref> Presumably while the gods politely kill each-other outside of the human realm. It uses the myth of the Valkyries, which in Norse mythology were dispatched to the battlefield to review or the suitability of fallen heroes for Valhalla, protect warriors, and in some instances kill those who were not favourable.<ref>Britannica, The Editors of Encyclopaedia. "Valkyrie". Encyclopedia Britannica, 21 Jun. 2024, <nowiki>https://www.britannica.com/topic/Valkyrie-Norse-mythology</nowiki>. Accessed 24 July 2024.</ref> In the Manhwa, these are elite warriors which are dispatched (presumably to Midgard) to find those destined to bring about Ragnarök. <ref name=":0" /> Character Fenris Fenrir searches to find the reincarnation of Balder (Baldr) in an attempt to change the world, while the Valkyries attempt to find Balder to thwart these plans. <ref name=":0" /> In the Edda, Balder presages his own death and is killed, sparking a series of events which begins Ragnarök. His return is prophesised after Ragnarök has finished, to help begin anew along with Thor's sons.
