Shieldmaiden epic narrator: Vivian

Shieldmaiden epic narrator, cold-fire, powerful, and proud

Prompt: A fierce, resonant female shieldmaiden-saga-narrator voice that chronicles a warrior-woman's northern legend. Her powerful alto narrates raids, honor, and defiance with cold fire, treating a woman's claim to the warrior's path as a saga worth carving in stone. There's frost-hard strength and mythic pride in her tone. The voice of the shieldmaiden epic. They said a woman's place was by the hearth. She answered them with a sword, and a longship, and a name the sagas still fear to speak.

Script: They told her woman's place was by the hearth. To weave, to birth the sons who would do the fighting. To wait by the cold fire for the ships to return - or not. She heard them, and then she picked up her fallen brother's sword and she learned to use it better than he ever had.
