["Heidrun, one of the ancient nature spirits of the Nine Realms, is renowned for her unwavering HP. She feeds on the tender leaves of the World Tree, Yggdrasill, and was personally chosen by the All-Father Odin to oversee the training of all Heroic Warriors in Valhalla.\nThrough Targeted Teaching, she either reveals a Warrior's hidden weaknesses, forcing them to temper themselves into steel, or provides precise guidance to hone their combat skills. With the clarity and resilience of a nature spirit, she forges each Heroic Warrior into a Champion capable of facing despair and charging into the battlegrounds of Ragnarok.\n\n“Heidrun stands on Valhalla’s roof, nibbling on the branches of Lærad. From her horns flows mead, filling the great vat till it overflows every day, quenching the thirst of all the Heroic Warriors.” — Edda Manuscript: Grimnir’s Sayings","In the hearts of countless Warriors in the Hall of Heroes, some revere her as the strictest Mentor, for she can pierce through their deepest, hidden weaknesses with a single glance and strike directly at the core with unmatched sharpness. Others respect her as a nurturing Mentor, patiently guiding their Path of Ascension and preparing lavish meals and fine mead for the Warriors returning from Crimson Onslaught.\nWhat she aims to teach the Warriors is never just an invincible Strength but also the understanding that behind this pursuit of power lies a purpose worth guarding with their lives.\n\n“All Heroic Warriors who drink that mead are reborn anew each day after battle, until the horn of Ragnarok is sounded.” —Edda Manuscript『Prose Edda: Gullveig's Deception』","Heidrun upholds the principle of properly guiding every Heroic Warrior in the Hall of Heroes, with an almost obsessive dedication to ensuring that every Warrior around her receives instruction. Upon learning of the fate of Ragnarok, all of Asgard was thrown into chaos, but it was the Heroic Warriors in the Hall of Heroes who, under Heidrun's guidance, maintained their fighting spirit. The Warriors remember why they entered the Hall of Heroes in the first place, and their training roars cause the World Tree to tremble.\n\n“Before the end of days comes, her mead will never run dry, and the Heroic Warriors' valor will never fade.” —The Poetic Edda: The Seeress's Prophecy","In the apocalyptic battle that engulfed the Nine Realms in flames, the golden hall of Asgard collapsed with a thunderous crash. Countless gods and Heroic Warriors fell in battle. Heidrun, leading the remaining Heroic Warriors, fought valiantly in a Crimson Onslaught, yet was unable to avert the inevitable fate.\nAs Twilight descended, the Nine Realms turned to scorched earth, and she became one of the few survivors. She returned to the ruins of Asgard and sang requiems for each fallen Warrior. They all followed her teachings, fighting until their very last moment of life, for it was the ultimate Glory Days of the fearless. Yet, as the final note of the requiem faded into the charred wind, Heidrun ultimately let fall scalding tears.","After Ragnarok, Heidrun wandered through the ruins of the Nine Realms, eventually arriving at Phantasia Mountain. Here gathered battle-slain heroes, lost souls, and shards left behind by the fallen gods—no longer distinguished by identity, only united as fellow travelers crushed by fate.\nHeidrun's current goal is no longer to cultivate invincible warriors but to help every soul broken by fate rise again. She wields truth as her sword and companionship as her shield, guiding every lost soul to find the Courage to take the first step toward the mountain summit amidst the pain of being seen through and the warmth of acceptance."]
