Eira Skeld

Eira Skeld speaks at the Storm Table with the calm of a woman who knows exactly what warmth costs. She offers shelter generously, records repayment precisely, and turns the White Debt into a blade that cuts without needing blood on the floor. Her robes carry seal-horn clasps, storm cord, and the faint smell of smoke from clan fires. Some call her merciful because no traveller freezes where Skeld hands can reach. Others fear her because mercy from Eira may bind children not yet born. Her power is ancient in manner and modern in patience: coercion made to sound like honour.
