Chooser of The Slain

Gene Hunt Vs Capri (ride of the valkyries) 

In Norse mythology, a valkyrie (/vælˈkɪəri, -ˈkaɪri, vɑːl-, ˈvælkəri/; from Old Norse valkyrja "Chooser of The Slain") is one of a host of female figures who choose those who may die in battle and those who may live.

Selecting among HALF of those who die in battle (the other half go to the goddess Freyja's afterlife field Fólkvangr), the valkyries take their chosen to the afterlife hall of the slain, Valhalla, ruled over by the god Odin. There, the deceased warriors become einherjar (Old Norse "single (or once) fighters".

When the einherjar are not preparing for the events of Ragnarök, the valkyries bear them mead.

Valkyries also appear as Lovers of Heroes and other mortals, where they are sometimes described as the Daughters of Royalty, sometimes accompanied by ravens and sometimes connected to swans or horses.

Albus Severus Potter: 

Dad, what if I am put in Slytherin?

Harry Potter:

Albus Severus Potter, you were named after two headmasters of Hogwarts. 

One of them was a Slytherin and he was The Bravest Man I’ve Ever Known.

Albus Severus Potter:

But just say that I am.

Harry Potter: 

Then Slytherin House will have gained a wonderful young wizard. 

But listen, if it really means that much to you, you can choose Gryffindor. 

The Sorting Hat takes your choice into account.

Albus Severus Potter: 

Really?

Harry Potter:

Really.
