Fate of the Norns: Ragnarok - Core Rulebook (2nd Ed) (2013)

from the designer

The Twilight of the gods nears;
brother will kill brother,
families will be sundered by incest.
Four ages are afoot:
an Axe Age, a Sword Age,
where shields are cloven,
a Wind Age, a Wolf Age,
where the world falls.
None shall be spared...
– Voluspa
