Wal means \"heap of slain\" and kyria means \"chosen one.\" These warrior women are both Odin's helpers and his daughters. They fulfill the Allfather's wishes, choose the warriors fallen in battle, and bring them to him. The Valkyries can also intervene in battles and determine fate. Their function is thus similar to that of the three Norns.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e It is assumed that the youngest Norn, Skuld, was also a Valkyrie.\u003cbr\u003e The warrior women, like the Einherjar, live in Valhalla.
