About Me

.."Pwyll, the great warrior, calls for strength from the sky Pwyll, the great warrior, summons the Gods up high..."Contact: [email protected] Scandinavian mythological lore, the Oskoreien (loosely translated "The Wild Hunt") were the only connection between the realm of the living and the realm of the dead. Led by Odin, the Norse God of poetry and war, the souls comprising the Oskoreien would travel the land bringing both joy and sorrow, as it was deserved, to the realm of humans.
