Fate:Lost Einherjar - Aslaug of the Aurora (フェイト:ロストエインヘリャル - 極光のアスラウグ?) is a light novel series written by Hikaru Sakurai and illustrated by Shirow Miwa. The first volume was published on December 31, 2022 by TYPE-MOON BOOKS.

Story[]

Setting[]

« The Valkyries dancing the skies and Dwarves forging the weapons of the gods, and even the gods and giants themselves disappeared. The battles between brave heroes and dragons became legends of a distant past. The supposedly everlasting flame flicker atop Mt. Hindarfjall did not last, and the 9 Norse Worlds were reduced to only Midgard. Even the Yggdrasil at its center is now gone.[1]

The age of the gods was over and the age of the humans had began. Human braves live plundering across the seas.[1]

Aslaug is the daughter of dragon-slayer Sigurd and valkyrie Brynhild. She long slept under the great harp of magical silver, and what awaited her upon her awakening was a world of men without gods. The Scandinavian Peninsula of the 9th Century. There she had a fateful encounter with Ragnar, young warrior of the vikings, the bold men who claim to serve the disappeared Norse gods and to be braves deserving of guidance to Valhalla.[1]

This truly was the chance meeting between the last Valkyrie and the last Einherjar.[1] »

Fate:Lost Einherjar takes place in the World of Fate/Apocrypha ten years after the end of Fate/Apocrypha. It is set in Oslo, Norway in 2014. The previous year, a certain animated blockbuster based on NorwayWP had been released.[2]

Plot[]

« The 21st Century Scandinavia is the stage for the Doubles Subcategory Holy Grail War, a battle where groups of two Servants fight as duos. Fate:Lost Einherjar - Aslaug of the Aurora is a story centered around Aslaug and Ragnar, the two Servants summoned for this battle by Lemina, a mage of the former Yggdmillennia clan. The story will solve several mysteries and contradictions and unveiled their checkered pasts while alternating between two chronological points, the Sub-Grail War Arcs, which portray the present, and the Lifetime Arcs, which are the story of how Aslaug and Ragnar met in the 9th Century Scandinavia.[1]

What is the reason behind Aslaug and Ragnar's memory inconsistencies? What's the meaning behind Ragnar's words? What do the two crows dancing in the skies of present day Scandinavia represent? Stay tuned for the tale of unknown destiny in a new setting with new Heroic Spirits![1] »

Doubles Subcategory Holy Grail War (亜種二連聖杯戦争?)

First volume transcription

9th century, Northern Europe. Scandinavian Peninsula. The girl slept for centuries, cradled in a great harp of magical silver, and what she found when she woke up was the godless world of human history. The girl's name was Aslaug. Daughter of dragon-slayer Sigurd and valkyrie Brynhild. She lived an unassuming life until a particular turning point: her encounter with the fearless Viking hero and future king Ragnar Lodbrok.


And then in the year 201X, the capital of Norway is Oslo. In the first-ever Doubles Subcategory Holy Grail War magecraft ritual, Aslaug and Ragnar are summoned together as Servants (mystical weapons meant to kill one another).

And thus, the last Valkyrie and the last Einherjar are reunited by chance after millennia.

時に九世紀、北欧。スカンディナヴィア半島。

魔銀の大竪琴を揺籃として眠りに就き、永き時を経て目覚めた少女を待ち受けていたものは、神々なき人類史の世界だった。
少女の名はアスラウグ。竜殺しシグルドと戦乙女ブリュンヒルデの娘。
息を潜めるようにして生きる少女の日々は、ある時を境に一変する。
それこそ、恐れるものなきヴァイキングの勇士にして未来の王、ラグナル・ロズブロークとの出逢いだった。

そして西暦二〇一X年、北欧はノルウェー首都オスロ。
史上初の魔術儀式である亜種二連聖杯戦争において、アスラウグとラグナルは共に、殺し合うための神秘の兵器(サーヴァント)として召喚される。

それは、奇しくも──

最後の戦乙女(ワルキューレ)と最後の勇士の魂(エインヘリャル)の、千年を経た邂逅だった。

Development[]

The title was first announced in a tweet advertising TYPE-MOON Ace Volume 14.[3] The first volume's prologue was included in the magazine ahead of the volume's official release.

Series illustrator Shirow Miwa had previously worked for TYPE-MOON as the illustrator for Sigurd and Brynhildr in Fate/Grand Order, but he had also secretly designed other Norse characters as fan art on his own time, not as something TYPE-MOON asked him to do.[4] He eventually submitted the designs for approval after seeing how Columbus Lily had also started as fan art,[5] which led to the development of this series and the designs being canonized.[6]

At Comiket 100 in Summer 2022, Shirow Miwa sold a doujinshi called Romancia:Aurora with rough sketches of the characters and other unofficial illustrations.[7] Romancia:Aurora was written before Fate:Lost Einherjar's setting was completely finalized, so some things in it were changed by the time Lost Einherjar was published.[8]

Fate:Lost Einherjar is the first Fate series to have a colon in the title instead of a forward slash.
