"Nidhogg! Wake! Wake, wise serpent of Niflheim!" Zeke's death at the hands of Loki was imminent until the beautiful Valkyrie, Shaker, intervened. But her dire words of warning have haunted him: "You must try harder, Zeke. You have strengths that you know not of. Work with them. Practice them. If you don't, you will remain weak, and your cousin, Taylre, will perish. It is up to you." After Taylre is kidnapped by Loki and taken into the Mist on the dreaded ship, Naglfar, Zeke begins to plan her rescue. Along with the Captain and Devon, Zeke ventures to the Cabin in the Woods. There they find the seeress, Sinmora, who leads them through a Seidh, a mystic Norse séance filled with magic and enchantment. From there the adventure begins, a quest filled with more peril than Zeke and his tiny group of followers could have ever imagined. Exploring amongst the branches of Yggdrasil and shifting between the nine worlds, Zeke must build his strength and practice courage if he is ever going to save Taylre from the dreadful grip of Loki at the Gates of Asgard.
