Alma Ólafsdóttir was born and raised by her widower father in Akureyri, Iceland. The Goddess Ymir chose her, as a young teen, to be her hands and eyes in the Anthropic Universe, and to save the human species from extinction… at least that’s Ymir led Alma to believe. Terrified of her new-found unimaginable power, and the cold influence of Ymir’s hatred for imperfect humans, Alma hid from people on her family farm for almost seventy years.

Warning, Spoilers

Throughout the book, Ymir tests Alma. Some of these tests are brutal, torturous, cruel, but all of them require teamwork and loyal friendships. Although she’s mostly omnipotent, she has limitations. These limitations are the basis to her forming connections with other powerful characters, like Dawn, and David.

Ymir is a crafty god. Alma’s tests are not only for her. They are also for her friends, particularly the Trinity. While she grows stronger, they do as well, and as the Trinity grows more powerful, so does Ymir.

These trials come to a head when a war breaks out between humanity and a little understood species called the Æsir. It becomes clear that the Gods are at war, and they’re using the humans and the Æsir as their proxy fighters in our Anthropic Universe.
