YOUR SHIP - The Viking Skirnir
Skirnir is a humble servant of the gods. When the lovesick Freyr, god of sunshine and prosperity, falls in love with the beautiful goddess Geror, he sends Skirnir to woo her. The coy goddess refuses his advances until Skirnir threatens her with his mystical wand. But Skirnir is smart; for delivering her, he requires that Freyr give him his powerful sword as a reward.
