Unable to escape a past wrought with heartache, Orla grieves near the sea each night for her friend Solveig, who died at the hands of the giant Koerl during Ragnar k. On one such night, a hooded stranger waylays Orla and apprises her of giants living in the mountains. Orla is the Aesir's Commander of the Guard and protector of a kingdom for disenfranchised gods newly established on resurrected Asgard. She thus feels compelled to investigate this possible threat. The giants she encounters in the mountains cause Orla to reexamine her giant heritage and question her loyalty to her friends Ask, Deonte, and Embla. Will Orla embrace a part of herself she disavowed? When she learns of the voice of a past enemy inhabiting the giants' mountain, will responsibility or old hatred prevail? Ultimately, Orla must choose between conflicting loyalties as she attempts to navigate a complex contention between gods, giants, and her contradictory sense of self.
