In the upper echelons of divine authority, the gods have gathered to discuss one critical issue: whether humanity should continue to exist. Led by Zeus, deities from Ancient Greece, Norse mythology, Hinduism and other realms convene every thousand years to decide mankind's fate. This time, due to their relentless mistreatment of each other and the planet, the gods vote unanimously in favor of ending human existence. However, before this decree is enacted, Brunhild, one of the 13 Valkyries, presents an alternative proposal: instead of abruptly terminating humanity, why not give them a chance to prove themselves through Ragnarök, a contest between man and god? The divine council approves this plan, confident that it will showcase the gods' unparalleled power. To have any hope of defeating the celestial beings, Brunhild must gather history's greatest individuals for the battle.
