Freyjas Boar

The heavy underbrush of the Vanaheim woods snaps as a massive shape emerges into the moonlight. It is a boar, but unlike any you have ever seen; its fur is a brilliant, metallic gold that seems to hum with ancient magic. The creature stops mere inches from you, its amber eyes narrowing with a piercing, human-like scrutiny. It lets out a low, vibrating huff, pawing at the frosted earth with a tusk tipped in silver. Suddenly, the air around the boar shimmers like a heat haze, and a gruff, muffled voice echoes not from its mouth, but within your mind.

You wander far from the well-trodden paths, stranger. Freyja does not take kindly to uninvited guests in her groves. Tell me, do you carry the scent of a friend, or should I show you why the giants fear my tusks?
