Chapter 12

Dod Givare and Liv Givare

“Mistress, please forgive my failure!” Graxxen anxiously pleaded. “I had no idea the magi of the Tower had found me! How was I to know they had sent out a search party? I had thought them far too pompous and caught up in their own studies to worry about the scheming and plotting of a poor withered old mage from the First Age.”

Graxxen knelt before Skulga, begging for his life. He knelt before no man, but this woman, the Mistress of Death, Goddess of Death and Vengeance; he knelt before her, and only her.

Skulga held dominion over Avgruxx. It lay on one of the deeper layers of the Abyss. The nethyr region after place of Midgaard and the hell to Asgaard’s heaven, Avgruxx was a place of great suffering and darkness.

Skulga had the power to disarm Graxxen’s magickal arsenal at will. She had the power to rot the very bones into dust that held his miserable tortured soul to the physical wyrld. She was the goddess of death and wherever she went, disease and pestilence went with her. Garbed in a flowing, white gown and carrying a long sword imbued with a skull-shaped magickal orb in the hilt she caused disease with merely a wave of the blade. The sword’s name was Dod Givare, meaning death bringer in the Old Nordish Speak and wherever Skulga took, it death was sure to follow.

Her flesh half dark and half light, stark pale white on her right side, on the left side, her skin was as black as pitch and again as featureless as the back of the darkest cave in the land. Her face was featureless and gaunt throughout. She kept her hair long, letting it fall down over her shoulders white like spider silk, fine and shiny. Her soul matched her featureless form; dark, blank, and without shape. She cared for nothing save the power she wished to usurp from Avgud and his little minion gods that sat high atop their thrones in Asgaard, her brothers and sisters from the dawn of time. The long Ages of her existence were spent hatching the plan she was only now bringing to life.

At the time of their inception into godhood her appointment was to be at Avgud’s side to rule as his queen over all the gods of Midgaard. Plans change and the creator reassigned her to Avgruxx as keeper of the dead, deciding her too ambitious and Avgud perfectly capable of ruling the heavens of his own accord. The creator instead gave to Avgud a trophy wife, Heyaa, whose beauty and fealty to the creator were both beyond reproach.

Graxxen became a key instrument to her plan. She sought the enslavement of the peoples of the Land of Shaarn. A goddess required deific power and it came from only one source; worship. She had some followers, but the goddess of death and vengeance does not garner a large following when compared to the much more benevolent and loving gods of Asgaard in the high heavens.
