Tungaðr, Serpent of Dualla's Sun
Descending from the sky, resplendent in golden robes, came the goddess Daulla. She stood atop the arrowhead shape of a massive serpents head. It's scales were radiant and polished, a mix of gold and electrum. As it's coils undulated, the air around it shimmered with heat enough to melt the very sand it's bellow slithered across to glass.
A divine serpent for the goddess Daulla, Tungaðr was made by her sister as a gift when the triplets were still small, made from metals that their father dredged up from the earth. She is a battle companion for Dualla, both mount and dance partner, accentuating the goddess' spear work and focusing her divine rites and actions.
Her scales are golden and electrum, and seem to hold onto the suns light even when it is dark, glowing softly. It is said that if one holds a scale of Tungaðr, they will always feel the warmth of the suns, even in the dead of winter.
