Signý
Norse · scion · mythic prehistoric · Recorded classification
Twin sister of Sigmund and daughter of Völsung. The tragic architect of the line's first revenge: married to Siggeir, who massacred her father and brothers, she orchestrated his destruction across years — sending her sons to Sigmund to be tested, then conceiving Sinfjötli by Sigmund himself — and died with Siggeir in the fire rather than outlive the vengeance she had wrought.
