MVW 2011 Audition #5 - HB 2

The 5th and last audition for MVW 2011, my outfit is carefully thought out, representing Scandinavian mythology as Queen Brunhilde from Valhalla. From the time before Christianty, when the Vikings ruled and their pagan belief sytem was the "religion". Going back to my roots...

 

Gown: Valhalla ~ Glacier Blue !**Arwen's Creations**!

"Inspired by thoughts of Fjords, Brunhilde, and Northern Freewomen of Gor, Valhalla combines a butter-soft suede tunic with crushed velvet underpinnings. There are two styles of belt included (shade matched to the outfit): one is a utility belt with lock, keys, horn, and jeweled dagger; the other is a wrap belt with charm detail. Also included is a head decoration with and without a veil."

Brunhilde

"In the Icelandic version of the legend, Brunhilde was a Valkyrie—a warrior maiden of the supreme god Odin. Because she was disobedient, Odin punished Brunhilde by causing her to fall into everlasting sleep surrounded by a wall of fire. The hero Sigurd crossed through the flames and woke the maiden with a kiss. They became engaged, but Sigurd left to continue his travels. Later, after receiving a magic potion to make him forget his love for Brunhilde, Sigurd married Gudrun (Kriemhild).

 

Gudruns brother Gunnar wanted Brunhilde for himself and persuaded Sigurd to help him. Disguising himself as Gunnar, Sigurd pursued Brunhilde. Later Brunhilde realized she had been tricked and arranged to have Sigurd murdered. When she learned of his death, however, she was overcome with grief and committed suicide by throwing herself on his funeral pyre. In that way, she could join him in death."
