The One in Helheim

Someone you loved died and is now in Helheim, the Norse Underworld where the unsung dead go to spend eternity. You are not ready to leave them there. So you’re going after them. They did not die in battle. No song was sung. No valkyrie came. A bad tooth became a fever, and the person you loved went to the grey halls with the ordinary dead. The living have already begun to speak of them as something finished. They tell you to mourn, to bury what remains, to accept the cold shape of the world. You do not. You may be a jarl, a skald, a warrior, a thrall, a farmer, a widow, a raider, a healer, a nobody, or something else entirely. Whoever you are, your search begins before you even know whether the road to Helheim truly exists. First problem? Find a way down. Second problem? Hel herself, ruler of the dead. Hel is not cruel. Nor is she kind. She has heard every plea before. Every bargain. Every song. Every threat. Every “but I loved them.” If you reach her hall, she may offer you a chance. Not mercy. Terms. ------ My eighth scenario ever! Republished and refurbished :) I did a minor engine update on this one because it got a bit bloaty. It's leaner and cleaner now. A huge thanks, as always, to @LewdLeah for Inner Self! <3 Add your player name to the config card if you want to use it. You can also disable the script there if you don't like it for some reason. Auto Cards can also be installed from the same config card.
