The lore of Valheim is a rich sampling of Norse Mythology done in a way that is deeply satisfying to experience. This first episode of my Valheim Lore Guide is a big deal for me as I really love to dive into the lore of games like these to tease their secrets into the light. I hope that you enjoy it!

    I was deeply excited to try my hand at something like this. I hope that it is of service to the community and that there is sufficient interest to justify doing more of them. See you all, in Odin's halls!

    I'm always into videos that take a fresh or different look at what's inside Valheim, and do so with a bit of quality. Nicely done!

    Thanks for leaving this comment! I’m happy that this perspective was interesting for you. I had a great time making it. I’m pretty hopeful next week will bring another from the mountains that I think you will also enjoy.

    Great video, and cool narration. If you make a series explaining all the mobs and biomes of Valheim I would put that on repeat

    Oh that makes my day to hear! I was unsure if I had hit the right tone or not. Last night on stream we were discussing which mob to do next and I think it’s cultists. I like the idea of doing biomes too as they all have layers of meaning behind them.

    I’m subscribing for next videos like that. Please do all other biomes the way you did this one :)

    I would be delighted to. Honestly, this video was a little scary for me to make. It was my first proper lore video and I had to constantly track back through various articles to find out where Iron Gate sourced their lore and then fit it to the runestones to make a narrative. I will be doing at least one more lore video before I go on vacation for two weeks. Please stay tuned for it! Thanks again for the sub and for the warm words in both of your comments.

    I'm so happy you enjoyed it! It was a little nerve-wracking to make but I'm fairly pleased with how it came together in the end. I'll be doing at least one more of these before going on a two week vacation to my home country so please stay tuned for it!

    Thanks! I learned a lot about the process for making a lore video while doing this and I’m excited to do another. Great suggestions too! I’ll add them to the list and post a poll on Monday!

    Is so great to see content like this about Valheim, loved it!! I'd be interested to know more about the Fulings, why do they laugh?!

    Thank you so much for your kind words. They give me confidence to keep making this kind of content. Fuglings are definitely going to be covered once I know more about them. Their laugh is iconic and they seem so brash. I think the line of progress for the series will be Mountain Cultists, Greydwarves, and then Fuglings. I anticipate this will take me the next couple months to put out since I'll be on vacation for two weeks so I'll be unable to accomplish much work until I return.

    ​@@athacusgaming You're very welcome, I think people often don't understand how much goes into making videos - especially when you are doing it yourself! I certainly didn't until I started recently and oh boy, they easily take me 30+ hours! It's so easy to lose hope or struggle to try new things in case it doesn't work out. I'm so glad this was well received so you have the energy to keep going! Take your time and have fun with it! I'll look forward to the next one when it is ready, and seeing what you come up with :)!

    Nice introduction to an enemy that caused a lot of corpse runs (especially the ones with bows!). I would be curious to know more about the creatures in the mountain, especially the Cultists. What is their story?

    Those bows. Those damned bows. I was really curious to know more about the cultists too. I’ll have a dig around to see what I can find out.

    Other questions: - whose giant skeletons and armors lies in the Mistland and what happen to them ? - Dvergr: who are they ? They seem to be harvesting stuff for their own goals and tolerate our presence. I feel like the Ashland followed the swamp Draugrs in terms of fate

    @@jean-micheltanguay8664 so, we aren't far off the Mistlands now. Once I'm in there and able to look around, I'll know better but I have an inkling who it might be from the descriptions I've seen on Reddit and elsewhere. If I'm right, it's a very intriguing concept for a video.
