Awakening
Four Elements. Four Land Wights. Four Teens. One Destiny: Prevent Ragnarok.
Book 1 in the Land Wight Chronicles.
When Freydís, a fourteen-year-old Icelandic girl, encounters a mythical creature called a Nixie, it sets off a series of events that challenge her and her brother Viktor's elemental powers. Freydís controls the earth's elements, while Viktor can control fire. They soon learn that their powers are connected to a dangerous threat that could plunge Asgard and Midgard into eternal darkness. To combat this evil, they must awaken the dormant Land Wights, ancient spirits of Iceland, and unite with other elementalists who control water and air.
The question remains: will they be able to defeat the darkness and save both realms, or will eternal night prevail?
