The Northman Valkyrie rides to Valhǫll

[@nadirnorthandor7076]

To those that keep wondering or assuming that she's wearing braces. They're not braces, archaeologists and historians found that vikings used to carve their teeth or Teeth-Filing. It was some sort of tradition back then.

The way Eggers handle with mythology is so beautiful and haunting. He is able to keep a realistic dimension to talk about humanity and his struggles, but at the same time he is able to look at the bigger things that float over us. Amleth is a human being and no more than that, and he represent every human world nuance; but the vision of him carried by the Valkyrie to a cosmicism version of Valhalla it’s not a speech about our world anymore, it’s a speech about the beyond.

Valhalla is just one of the many afterlife in the Norse religion. Valhalla and Folkvangr are for the warriors that died in battle.

There many other afterlife depending on how a person lived or died.
