Synopsis
SG-1 become enmeshed in a fierce battle straight out of Nordic mythology. Although unwilling participants, SG-1 soon find themselves fighting with the Vanir against their ancient foe - the brutal giants of Jotunheim - and feasting with them long into the night. But when dawn arrives, the team find themselves in a very different world. Although still at war, the Vanir and Jotunheim have advanced a millennia and fight with weapons of the 18th century.
Excerpt
VALHALLA
"So we're talking what?" O'Neill said. "A boatload of Vikings who got really lost on their way to pillage Britain?"
"Not exactly," Daniel said. "As I said, the artifacts contain Norse runes -- on the outside. But on the inside of one of the artifacts -- specifically, this scabbard -- I discovered writing from another language: Asgard."
Teal'c frowned. "On the inside, Daniel Jackson?"
Daniel leaned back, looking suddenly sheepish. "Yeah, well, when I was examining the scabbard I, uh, sort of dropped it."
"And let me guess," O'Neill said. "It sort of broke. Didn't they teach you not to drop priceless ancient artifacts back in Archaeology 101?"
Daniel pursed his lips in irritation, but he took hold of the scabbard and lifted one side of it away from the other. He held up the split piece and turned the inside toward the others so they could see the runes etched within. "On the inside, written in Asgard, is a gate address -- one previously unknown to us. The address is accompanied by a single word: Valhalla."
