What is the significance of ravens in our Ravens’ Nest?

Ravens are symbols of intellect and prophecy in Norse mythology. The god Odin had a pair of ravens: Huginn (whose name means “Thought”) and Muninn (“Memory”). Scouring the realms for knowledge, they embody Odin’s insatiable thirst for wisdom.

In my books, ravens are a family sigil for the sisters in Daughters of Valhalla, and they play an important role in almost every Viking story I write. Their legacy continues in our Ravens’ Nest!
