Synopsis: Long ago, a Semi-Divine warrior named Kratos destroyed the pantheon of Classical Mythology in a Roaring Rampage of Revenge after the gods took his wife and daughter. Centuries later, in a land far to the North, the now immortal Kratos tries to live quietly with his wife Faye and their young son named Atreus. However, after Faye dies, Kratos and Atreus must leave their home to fulfill Faye's last wish: to scatter her ashes from the top of the highest peak among the Nine Realms. In the process, the father and son find themselves crossing paths with all manner of gods and monsters of Norse Mythology. At the same time, Kratos, who has spent Atreus's life a cold and distant father, must learn to finally open himself up and forge a genuine bond with his son.
