My design archetypes come from the north, where the souls are fluid, and bonded to trees and gods. From the lands of the ice and fire, from the plains of Thor's lords. From the stormiest waters calmed into the embrace of the fjords. From the sacred woods where kings were worshippers of grace, at the time when sacred was magic, and magic was fate.
