About this ship

Viking Skirnir

Skirnir is a resilient and clever companion among the gods. When Freyr, the god of sunlight and joy, yearns for the enchanting goddess Geror, Skirnir is sent on a bold mission. With unmatched determination, he negotiates with the hesitant goddess, emphasizing his wit and resourcefulness. For securing Geror’s affections, Skirnir earns a reward like no other—a legendary sword from Freyr himself. His tale is one of loyalty, strategy, and the courage to take on challenging journeys.
