“I’ll tell you a story, of lands long forgotten,
Where giants once roamed, they
Were tall as the mountains”
In the freezing cold of the Winter Ranges, lie the ancient halls built by the mighty jöthnar. There, the bones and the mysteries of their civilisation are left behind. Many secrets are still buried deep beneath the snow of the mountains, waiting for explorers capable of uncovering them.
