Hand of Nothing Spring Sunrise Freyja: Parallel Hearts

Eitr: Hand of Nothing
Here's Eitr—a mysterious girl who stood against Peony and Plumeria on the orders of Ginnungagap, who rules the nothingness. Eitr is a timid and introverted girl. I've heard she suffers from low self-esteem because people used to make fun of her... How cruel. Ginnungagap robbed Eitr of her memories, so she doesn't really remember her past. I can't say I know any more than she does, but something about her feels familiar somehow. Maybe that flower she's holding could be a clue—it only grows in Vanaheimr, the realm of light. Just who are you, Eitr?

Eitr: Spring Sunrise
Eitr was once the servant of Ginnungagap, ruler of nothingness. But today, she's serving seasonal cheer in her special outfit for the spring festival! Those big, floppy bunny ears lend her look some serious impact. And the light cloth at her waist features a cute polka-dot pattern! Oh, and I see a stuffed toy peeping out of that basket that's bursting with beautiful flowers. It's a toy made in the image of Freyr, king of the dream realm! Eitr is timid and often looks terrified—so I hope that this charming bunny outfit will help her get rid of those scary thoughts!

Freyja: Parallel Hearts
Freyja, queen of Dökkálfheimr, and Eitr, formerly the servant of the ruler of nothingness, are here together to join the fun at the harvest festival! There's a striking contrast in their choice of outfits for the festival. First up, Freyja's dressed in black, and her outfit features a long skirt and what looks like dragon wings on her back! Meanwhile, Eitr's white outfit features wings too—but these ones are pegasus wings! She's also carrying a shoulder bag that's been designed to look like a cute bow! Shy and withdrawn, Eitr's making a brave effort to join the festival fun, while Freyja's giving her a gentle push on the back. I think they'll have a great time at the festival together!
