Watching: Skuld

Overview

Found as a baby in the forest with a glowing ball of yarn, Skuld (Leona Shvetsova) is raised in a Viking settlement by the blacksmith Olaf. Hidden within her is the ancient power of the Norns: the ability to foresee and manipulate the future by weaving the threads of fate. When her village is threatened by the ruthless army of Eric the Terrible, Skuld uses her magic to strike down the leader from afar. Her display of power attracts the attention of Konung Knud. When his warriors fail to capture her, he sends his most fearsome tracker and hunter: Úlf the Terrible (Ragday Oleksandr Tymofieiev) — a legendary and fearless warrior Úlfhéðnar whose name strikes terror into the bravest hearts. As the predator closes in on his prey, the threads of the Norns begin to weave a path that neither of them can escape.
