Long, long ago...

Nibelungen's Ring legend is the most famous story from north European mythology. It has captivated the hearts and minds of millions, and the glory and beauty of this story has finally found its shape in Ring II, the second and last part of the adaptation of the four operas by Richard Wagner. It is a strange, yet beautiful land, matched only by the engrossing nature of the tale itself. It is the ultimate link between the various worlds of gods, Humans, Dwarves and Giants. It is a universe in which the Ring ensures equilibrium and continuity between all inhabitants therein. Even Wotan, master of the gods, is under its power.

This is a time of destiny.

When the spring tides rise, the last of the wolves will stare at the pole star to celebrate the memory of their hero, Siegfried; a child born of forbidden love who alone dared challenge the Gods and forever ended their reign. From the darkest forests at the top of the world comes this legend of a lost child who knows no fear. It is the story of a broken sword in need of repair and of a boy's fight with Fafner, the guardian of a ring whose power he will wield.

Discover the Golden Age of Siegfried, as he slays monsters, defies great powers and beguiles Brunehilde the Valkyrie in the Twilight of Gods. This is a time of courage and betrayal, and of passion and revenge.
