The Valkyries

Character from A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas

A reborn order of elite female warriors — Nesta, Gwyn, and Emerie resurrected the legendary Valkyrie tradition through the Blood Rite and forged an unbreakable bond.

Also known as: Valkyries, the Valkyrie sisterhood

What They Know

• The Blood Rite survival techniques they developed — specific combat formations and signal calls — could be taught to other female warriors to expand the order
• The ancient Valkyrie battle songs Gwyn recovered from the Library carry actual magical resonance, amplifying the physical capabilities of those who sing them
• Their training regimen combines Illyrian martial techniques with Nesta's death-magic conditioning — a unique combat style no enemy has encountered or prepared for
• The three share a bond forged in the Blood Rite that functions almost like a mate bond — they can sense each other's distress across distances
