Daughters of Freyja
The Daughters of Freyja is a sisterhood which is, since times ancient beyond the memory of woman, devoted to the Lady Divine Freyja. This secret society is one of the three Grand Mysterious Sisterhoods of the High Realm of Stormark and therefore has and enjoys innumerable ancient rights, privileges, pre-eminences, immunities, advantages and free customs. Ever since the Ducal Reign of Harald of Froyalan the sisterhood is also permanently active in the Flower of the North - after having been quite successfully active there at an ad hoc basis, especially during the days of the War of Vengeance.
The Vanadís Chapter Hall is the international headquarters of this Grand Mysterious Sisterhood, the Valfreyja Chapter Hall is zir local Elwynnese headquarters.
