In Norse lore, saying something out loud was to give it form, meaning, and power. That's why fate was often called a "wyrd". The Wyrd of Stromgard is just that- the power to shape heroic tales amidst chaos, violence, and magic.

Built on the Dungeon World ruleset and made from equal parts literature, lore, and legend, Stromgard is a broad world of magic and titanic threats, gods, monsters, and oracles. Above all, it is a rich expansion setting that includes everything you need to run epic Norse campaigns

Land wights are spirits tied down to specific locations all over the nine realms. They are usually peaceful, dedicated to keeping the leand under their power flourishing and pristine. Some who are magically inclined say that these wights are souls for certain dead, allowed to remain near the living world for providing someone unknown service to the goddess Hel. Normally invisible, those who have certain sensitivites are able to see the vaguely humanoid figures of these spirits. And, as they are usually benevolent, the wights are known for sometimes dispensing wisdom or other boons to those who prove worthy.
