Card Trivia:Valkyrie Sigurn


 * This card is based on the valkyrie Sigrun of Norse mythology, found prominently in the Poetic Edda. Betrothed to a man she deemed unworthy of her, Sigrun allies herself with the hero Helgi Hundingsbane, who destroys all supporters of the engagement. Helgi and Sigrun marry, but Helgi is betrayed and murdered by his own brother-in-law. Sigrun dies soon after of a broken heart, but is reborn again as the valkyrie Kara, and is reunited with the reborn Helgi.
 * This is the only Valkyrie monster to be named directly after a figure from the original Norse attestations, and not from Wagner's compositions nor after a number
